作词 : Howard, Peterson (ron peterson, harlan howard) I said i'm through with honky tonks They only bring me down I dressed my best and headed for The brightest spot in town I've watched the rich folks come and go and one thing's very clear There's just as many lonely people here Chorus I'm just hangin' &round a better class of losers It don't matter if you drink bear or champagne I've only found a better class of losers Uptown, downtown misry's all the same It's been all downhill for me Since baby walked away I'm down here at the bottom And i guess that's where i'll stay I'm looking for the answers But all that i've seen here Is the same old lonely phony atmosphere Repeat chorus For the blues are still the blues Still just as hard to lose Uptown, downtown...misery's all the same
