about

The only way left is up.

lyrics

Since my baby left me, I been underneath a curse
Think I hit the bottom, ‘cause things couldn’t get much worse
But I ain’t gonna stay here and wallow in my misery
‘Cause I been down so long, it looks like up to me

Just when I been thinkin’ I can’t go on any longer
Little voice tells me, what don’t kill you make you stronger
So I guess I turned the corner
My luck will change, just wait and see
‘Cause I been down so long, it looks like up to me

Life is never easy, it’s full of pain and sorrow
But if you can make it through the night, you’ll see the sun come up tomorrow
So I guess I’ll just keep on living, and when the blues come on, just let them be
‘Cause I been down so long, it looks like up to me
