(Shel Silverstein)

On the way to the bottom I met an old friend of
mine

He said Buddy, I do believe this is the end of
the line

I said The end of the line? Shoot, come on and
have another round

And if we're headin' for the bottom we still got
a long way down

On the way to the bottom we make a lot of stops

And we'd meet a lot of fools bustin' their hopes
on the way to the top

Pass me another bottle and turn down the lights

Forget about tomorrow, babe we're gonna rumble
tonight

I'll wear my low heeled boots you'll wear your
taffeta gown

And if we're heading for the bottom we'll go
laughing all the way down

On the way to the bottom I met an ol' girl of
mine

She said Honey, I'm scared, won't you love me one
more time?

I said One more time? Shoot, about a million more

We had a whole lotta loving and a whole lot more
in store

On the way to the bottom we make a lot of stops

And we'd meet a lot of fools bustin' their hopes
on the way to the top

Pass me another bottle and turn down the lights

Forget about tomorrow, babe we're gonna rumble
tonight

I'll wear my low heeled boots you'll wear your
taffeta gown

And if we're heading for the bottom we'll go
laughing all the way down...
