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 Instrumental 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 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...
