Rock Bottom Lyrics

When you hit rock bottom
You've got two ways to go
Straight up
And sideways
I have seen my share of hard times
And I抦 letting you know
Straight up
Is my way

Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothing
You've got nothing to lose
I was born naked
But I抦 glory bound
And a dead end street
Is just a place to turn around

(Chorus)
When the sky is the limit
Up on easy street
Rock bottom
Ain抰 no place to be
Rock bottom
Ain抰 no place for me
When the law of the jungle
Is the law of the land
Good luck
Stayin?alive
I keep a clinched fist under
This hat in my hand
Æ…ause only the strong survive

Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothin?BR You've got nothin?to lose
Anyway, rock bottom
Is good solid ground
And a dead end street
Is just a place to turn around

When the sky is the limit
Up on easy street
Rock bottom
Ain抰 no place to be
Rock bottom
Ain't no place for me
