Once my girl was conscious, she had better days with you
Then fame and fortune came your way and made a change in you
You climbed your latter of success and I'm not on solid ground
And when it starts to trouble, pick me up on your way down
Pick me up when rose are shattered, when false friends cannot be found
Oh you know I'll still be drinking, pick me up on your way down
I've hit the bottom of the glass, there's just one way to go
The world I've chosen for my own is one you'll never know
When folks say they don't know me, say I'm not on solid ground
You will find me in my alley, pick me up on your way down
Pick me up when rose are shattered, when false friends cannot be found
Oh you know I'll still be drinking, pick me up on your way down
Pick me up when rose are shattered, when false friends cannot be found
Oh you know I'll still be drinking, pick me up on your way down
