Bottle Let Me Down

(앨범: I've Always Been Crazy - 1978)

Each night I leave the barroom when it's over
Not feeling any pain at closing time
But tonight your mem'ry found me much too sober
I couldn't drink enough to get you off my mind.

Tonight the bottle let me down
Let your mem'ry come around
The one true friend that I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down.

I've always had a bottle I could turn to
Lately I've been turning every day
But the booze don't take effect the way it used to
I keep a hurting in an old familiar way.

Tonight the bottle let me down
Let your mem'ry come around
The one true friend that I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down.

Tonight the bottle let me down
Let your mem'ry come around
The one true friend that I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down...
