| Each night I leave the bar room when it’s over
|
| Not feeling any pain at closing time
|
| But tonight your memory found me much too sober
|
| Couldn’t drink enough to keep you off my mind
|
| Tonight the bottle let me down
|
| And let your memory come around
|
| The one true friend I thought I’d found
|
| Tonight the bottle let me down
|
| I’ve always had a bottle I could turn to And lately I’ve been turnin' every day
|
| But the wine don’t take effect the way it used to And I’m hurtin' in old familiar ways
|
| Tonight the bottle let me down
|
| And let your memory come around
|
| The one true friend I thought I’d found
|
| Tonight the bottle let me down
|
| Tonight the bottle let me down |
