Karaoké Lonely at the Top Jamey Johnson

I was pourin' out my troubles to a stranger in a bar

'Bout the problems and the pressures on a country music star

Half braggin'

Half complainin' 'bout the money and the fame

And just how lonely life 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've worked up a powerful thirst just listenin' to all your troubles

And while he makes that drink

I'll smoke one if you got 'em

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

With my loaded 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've worked up a powerful thirst just listenin' to all your troubles

And while he makes that drink

I'll smoke one if you got 'em

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
