Livin' it Up on Top

And on the road to hell there was a lot of waiting
Mmm
Waiting
Everybody waiting on a train
Mmm
Waiting on a lady with a
Waiting on a train to bring that lady
Mmm
Lady
With the suitcase back again
She's never early always late
Waiting
These days she never stays for long
But good things come to those who wait
Here she comes
Well it's like he said I'm an outdoor girl
And you're late again
Married to the king of the underworld
She forgot a little thing called spring
Are you wondering where I've been
Where you been
I'm wondering
Been to hell and back again
But like my mama always said：
Brother when you're down you're down
When you're up you're up
If you ain't six feet underground you're living it up on top
Let's not talk about hard times
Pour the wine it's summertime
'Cause right now we're livin' it
How are we livin' it
Livin' it livin' it livin' it up
Oh brother right here we're livin' it
Where are we livin' it
Livin' it up on top
Who makes the summer sun shine bright
That's right Persephone
Who makes the fruit of the vine get ripe
Persephone
That's me
Who makes the flowers bloom again in spite of a man
You do
Who's doing the best she can
Persephone that's who
Now some might say the weather ain't the way it used to be
But let me tell you something that my mama said to me
You take what you can get and you make the most of it
So right now we're livin' it
How are we livin' it
Livin' it livin' it livin' it up
Oh brother right here we're livin' it
Where are we livin' it
Livin' it up on top
It was summertime on the road to hell
Mmm
There was a girl who had always run away
Mmm
You might say it was in spite of herself
Mmm Mmm Mmm
That this young girl decided to stay
There was a poor boy with a lyre
Who says times are hard
The flowers bloomed and the fruit got ripe
And brother for a moment there
Anybody want a drink
The world came back to life
Ohhhh..
Up on top we ain't got much
But we're
Livin' it Livin' it livin' it up
Just enough to fill our cups
Livin' it up on top
Brother pass that bottle around
'Cause we're
Livin' it livin' it livin' it up
Let the poet bless this round
To the patroness of all of this Persephone
Who has finally returned to us with wine enough to share
Asking nothing in return except that we should live
And learn to live as brothers in this life
And to trust she will provide
And if no one takes too much there will always be enough
She will always fill our cups
I will
And we will always raise them up
To the world we dream about and the one we live in now
'Cause right now we're livin' it
How are we livin' it
Livin' it livin' it livin' it up
Oh brother right here we're livin' it
Where are we livin' it
Listen here I'll tell you where
We're livin' it up on top
Up on top
Livin' it up and we ain't gonna stop
Livin' it livin' it
Livin' it livin' it
How are we livin' it
Where are we livin' it
Livin' it livin' it
Livin' it livin' it
Livin' it up on top
