Lyrics

Rock Bottom Blues

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've had a little time to reason

I've had a little time to grow

There's people in the world I'm pleasin'

There's people in the world who don't wanna know

Ch)

But the future's gonna be much better

I can tell you that I've paid my dues

Now you tell me where, where did you get your blues

V2)

Won't you talk to me about your problems

Tell me all about your ways

Sometimes I feel like a helpless child

Won't you help me through these rock bottom days

Ch)

But the future's gonna be much better

I can tell you that I've paid my dues

Now you tell me where, where did you get your blues

When you're on the street you ain't nobody's fool - no you ain't

V3)

I'm looking for a good example

I'm looking for a piece of the game

I didn't know that I was a gambling man

When you're on the ground it all looks the same

Ch)

But the future's gonna be much better

I can tell you that I've paid my dues

Now you tell me where, where did you get your blues

When you're on the street you ain't nobody's fool - no you ain't

M8)

Don't decide that you've lost everything x 3

Don't you decide that you have lost everything

Won't you help me

Please help me now

Help me help myself, I can't help myself x 4

Ch)

But the future's gonna be much better

I can tell you that I've paid my dues

Now you tell me where, where did you get your blues

When you're on the street you ain't nobody's fool - no you ain't
