Pick Me Up On Your Way Down I [as done by Charlie Walker, Ernest Tubb, Carl Smith, Buck Owens, etc.]

Pick Me Up on Your Way Down

(Harlan Howard)

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 to the ground.

Pick me up on your way down.

cho: 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.

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 learn 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 II [as done by Patsy Cline]

Written by m. axton, b. levey and g. reeves

(as recorded by patsy cline november 8, 1956)

Once my love was good enough

True happiness we knew

Then fame and fortune came your way

And made a change in you

You'll find your ladder of success

Is not on solid ground

And when it starts to tumble

Pick me up on your way down

Chorus:

Pick me up when dreams are shattered

When false friends cannot be found

For you know i'll still be waiting

Pick me up on your way down

You've hit the top, but it won't last

There's just one way to go

The world you've chosen is not real

These things you'll come to know

When folks say they don't know you

And you've lost your final round

When you find that you are lonely

Pick me up on your way down

Repeat chorus
