You were mine for just a while

Now you're puttin' on the style

And you've never once looked back

At your home across the track



You're the gossip of the town

But my heart can still be found

Where you tossed it on the ground

Pick me up on your way down



Pick me up on your way down

When you're blue and all alone

When their glamor starts to bore you

Come on back where you belong



You may be their pride and joy

But they'll find another toy

Then they'll take away your crown

Pick me up on your way down



They have changed your attitude

Made you haughty and so rude

Your new friends can take the blame

For underneath you're still the same



When you've learned these things are true

I'll be waitin' here for you

As you tumble to the ground

Pick me up on your way down



Pick me up on your way down [unverified]
