Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They kick you while you're down, they hate you when you're up
Expecting you to pull yourself out from an empty cup
Nobody checks in, nobody comes to call
Guess they didn't mean it when they said, "If you need anything at all"
[Chorus]
I spend most my life at the bottom of the holler, just getting by the best way I know how
I don't care if it takes everything right down to my last dollar, I'm on top of the mountain now
[Verse 2]
Guess I didn't love her and she didn't love me too
I guess for better or for worse only works a year or two
So I sold most my stuff and I burned my last bridge
Headed for the hills, sit on top of the ridge
[Chorus]
I spend most my life at the bottom of the holler, just getting by the best way I know how
I don't care if it takes everything right down to my last dollar, I'm on top of the mountain now
[Instrumental]
Closer to God, near to the sky
And the townsfolk think it's raining when I start to cry
[Chorus]
I spend most my life at the bottom of the holler, just getting by the best way I know how
I don't care if it takes everything right down to my last dollar, I'm on top of the mountain
I spend most my life at the bottom of the holler, just getting by the best way I know how
I don't care if it takes everything right down to my last dollar, I'm on top of the mountain now
I'm on top of the mountain now
