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 Iæ#138#¦ 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 Iæ#138#¦ glory bound
And a dead end street
Is just a place to turn around

(Chorus)

When the sky is the limit
Up on easy street
Rock bottom
Ainæ#138#° no place to be
Rock bottom
Ainæ#138#° no place for me

When the law of the jungle
Is the law of the land
Good luck
Stayin?alive
I keep a clinched fist under
This hat in my hand
æ.#141#ause only the strong survive

Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothin?BR> You've got nothin?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
Ainæ#138#° no place to be
Rock bottom
Ain't no place for me
