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 turning every day But the wine don´t take effect the way it used to And I´m hurting 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
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 I can´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 Oh tonight the bottle let me down
