[Verse 1: Tyler Childers]

When you see me out tonight tearing up the promenade

People stop and step aside so I can move along

Is it just because they're friendly or the fact that I am gone

Stepping over lines of the paths they travel on?

[Chorus: Tyler Childers]

Living on the high side

Better keep it on the low down

Get to feeling just right

Think I’ll have to go and sit down

[Verse 2: Jesse Langlais]

Do you reckon that they notice?

Do you think that they believe?

I've been gettin' into meanness on the dark end of the street

Do my eyes tell my condition?

Does my breath show where I’ve been?

Am I talking any louder than the comp'ny that I'm in

[Chorus: Tyler Childers]

Living on the high side

Better keep it on the low down

Get to feeling just right

Think I'll have to go and sit down

[Bridge: Tyler Childers]

Sweating like a preacher in the presence of the Lord

Shaking like a leaf in the middle of a storm

Jawin' my bone trying to make you see

I wouldn't much fret if my friends were all here

But there's people in the corner and they're starting to stare

Having a ball poking fun at me

[Chorus: Tyler Childers]

Living on the high side

Keep it on the low down

Get to feeling just right

Think I’ll have to go and sit down

[Outro]

Living on the high side

Straighten up and try to act right

Keep it on the low down
