When you hit rock bottom
You've got two ways to go
Straight up and sideways
I have seen my share of hard times
And I'm letting you know
Straight up is my way
Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothing
You've got nothing to lose
I was born naked
But I'm glory bound
And a dead end street is just a place to turn around
When the sky is the limit up on easy street
Rock bottom ain't no place to be
Rock bottom ain't no place for me no no
When the law of the jungle is the law of the land
Good luck staying alive
I keep a clenched fist under this hat in my hand
Cause only the strong survive
Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothing
You've got nothing to lose
Anyway rock bottom is good solid ground
And a dead end street is just a place to turn around
When the sky is the limit up on easy street
Rock bottom ain't no place to be
Rock bottom ain't no place for me no no
