LUCINDA WILLIAMS
"Down Past The Bottom"

[Intro:]
Uh-huh, yeah
Uh-huh, yeah
Uh-huh, yeah

[Chorus:]
Well, down past the bottom, falling harder than a stone
I can't remember any good times that I've known
I'm sinking lower, lower, down past the bottom where the Devil won't go
Yeah, down past the bottom, nothing left to do but fail
No place to wander, nowhere left to sail
I'm sinking lower, lower, down past the bottom where the Devil don't hail

Yeah, I got the feeling in your last letter
I could've been nicer, treated you better
Just don't have a whole lot of time for thinking
A lot of time for walking, a lot of time for drinking
Down past the bottom, down past the bottom
Where the Devil won't go
Huh

[Instrumental break]

Yeah, I got the feeling in your last letter
Could've been nicer, treated you better
Just don't have a whole lot of time for thinking
A lot of time for walking, a lot of time for drinkin'
Down past the bottom, down past the bottom
Where the Devil won't go

[Chorus:]
Yeah, down past the bottom, falling harder than a stone
I'm falling, I can't remember any good times that I've known
I'm sinking lower and lower, down past the bottom where the Devil won't go
Yeah, down past the bottom, rolling harder than a stone
I can't remember any good times that I've known
I'm sinking lower, lower, down past the bottom where the Devil won't go

[Outro:]
Huh, yeah
Huh, yeah
Huh, yeah
