Rock Bottom Blues
Lyrics by David Koehler
My lady just told me
She’s had a change of heart
She needs a new environment
She wants a brand new start
I was just sittin’ there
Unaware and confused
When she dropped this bombshell
I wasn’t too enthused
What brought this on so suddenly
I feel I’m being used
I got the rock bottom blues
I just can’t take no more
It’s like my life’s a game
And they’re runnin’ up the score
Everything is goin’ wrong
It’s all just caving in
I’ve got the rock bottom blues
I sure could use a friend
It’s tough at work these days
Boss is ridin’ me, it’s true
I’m gettin all the late shifts
He’s tightening the screws
I’m dragging all the time
With nowhere to retreat
I hardly make a dime
I’m barely stayin’ on my feet
I want to run so bad
But a man has got to eat
I got the rock bottom blues
I just can’t take no more
It’s like my life’s a game
And they’re runnin’ up the score
Everything is goin’ wrong
It’s all just caving in
I’ve got the rock bottom blues
I sure could use a friend
Now I’ve hit rock bottom
The bank wants to take my car
I want to burn the evidence
And drive away real far
But you know that is impossible
They’ve got me dead to rights
There ain’t no use
In putting up a fight
These rock bottom blues
Keep me awake at night
I got the rock bottom blues
I just can’t take no more
It’s like my life’s a game
And they’re runnin’ up the score
Everything is goin’ wrong
It’s all just caving in
I’ve got the rock bottom blues
I sure could use a friend
I said to my lady
Babe don’t go astray
This surely ain’t the time
To throw everything away
She just shook her head
Then she turned and walked
Now I’m all alone
And I can barely talk
I think I’m getting crushed
At the bottom by a rock
I got the rock bottom blues
I just can’t take no more
It’s like my life’s a game
And they’re runnin’ up the score
Everything is goin’ wrong
It’s all just caving in
I’ve got the rock bottom blues
I sure could use a friend
Oh, I’ve got the rock bottom blues
I sure could use a friend
