Charlie Robison - The Bottom lyrics

rate me

Elevator operator

Look at me and smile a weary smile

You know my face could easily decieve

The wisest of them all

Are you going to the penthouse

Or the condo that lies just beyond the chapel doors

He just smiled and softly told me no

I'm going to the bottom

Chorus:

I'm going all the way down

To the bottom

So turn the music up real high

And let the sweetest benedictine liquor flow

No need to worry about tomorrow

Cause you're not here

I'm going all the way down

To the bottom

Rainy streets, Wet memory

Find a place inside to pass the time

The doug serves up my brandy and I drink

And pray your picture fades

You dressed in black

You turned your back

On the only heart that ever loved you so

The bells rang on the day you died

I'm headin to the bottom
