Lonely At The Top Lyrics

I was pourin' out my troubles To a stranger in a bar Of the problems and the pressures On a country music star
Half braggin', half complainin' 'Bout the money and the fame And just how lonely lot can be When you've made yourself a name
I said, "Would you like a drink?" He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double I worked up a powerful thirst Just listenin' to all your troubles"
"And while he makes that drink I'll smoke one if you got it It might be lonely at the top But it's a bitch at the bottom"
I left a hundred on the table And didn't wait around for change But my load a little lighter And my thinkin' rearranged
That stranger made me realize How thankful I should be And if I forget, I hope those words He said come back to me
I said, "Would you like a drink?" He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double I worked up a powerful thirst Just listenin' to all your troubles"
"And while he makes that drink I'll smoke one if you got it It might be lonely at the top But it's a bitch at the bottom It might be lonely at the top But it's a bitch at the bottom"
