ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND - High Cost Of Low Living lyrics

rate me

<div class="showResultLinks">You're the life of the party, everybody's host<br />

Still you need somewhere you can hide<br />

All your good time friends<br />

And your farewell to has-beens<br />

Lord knows, just along for the ride<br />

<br />

You think you're a survivor<br />

But boy, you better think twice<br />

No one rides for nothin'<br />

So, step up and pay the price<br />

<br />

It's a high cost of low livin'<br />

Ain't it high time, you turn yourself around<br />

Yeah, the high cost of low livin'<br />

It's bound to put you six feet in the ground<br />

<br />

So many here who love ya<br />

But still, you just can't tell<br />

Real ones and those who drop your name<br />

<br />

All the while behind your back<br />

They lift the flesh right from your bones<br />

You should know by now through all their game<br />

<br />

They've been chasing each dream with whiskey<br />

From here to Tokyo<br />

Usin' up all your real friends<br />

Places left to go<br />

<br />

It's a high cost of low livin'<br />

Ain't it high time you turn yourself around<br />

Yeah, the high cost of low livin'<br />

It's bound to put you six feet in the ground<br />

<br />

Don't look behind you<br />

Ahh, don't look back<br />

Don't turn to find reason in the past<br />

Past is gone, gone at last<br />

<br />

And it's high cost of low livin'<br />

And it's high time you turn yourself around<br />

Well, the high cost of low livin'<br />

It's bound to put you six feet in the ground</
