Lyrics Vic Chesnutt

Vic Chesnutt

When the Bottom Fell Out

When the bottom fell out

There wasn't any doubt

I just suddenly found myself free falling

And from such a height

The wind, it had a bite

And it took all my might to fight the fight

The fell in spread-eagled

Must've found an airfoil

Or some kinda wing

And I gained some equilibrium

Caught myself gliding

When the bottom fell out

Observers heard me shout

So long, It's been good to know you

But when I finallly smash

Into that vertin grass

I will say It's been pretty great going
