Uptown,downtown Lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

(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
