Rick Roberts        Pick Me Up On Your Way Down


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 glamour starts to bore you
                       
Come on back where you belong

You may be their pride and joy
            
But they'll find another toy
            
And they'll take away your crown
                       
Pick me up on your way down

SOLO


They have changed your attitude
         
Made you haughty and so rude
          
Your new friends can take the blame
                            
Underneath you're still the same

When you've learned these things are true
        
I'll be waiting here for you
       
As you tumble to 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 glamour starts to bore you
                       
Come on back where you belong

You may be their pride and joy
            
But they'll find another toy
            
And they'll take away your crown
                       
Pick me up on your way down
