Drinkin' From The Bottle

(album: Drinking From The Bottle - 1983)

Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
Crying blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart.

Harlan sang us Heartaches By The Number one more time
Johnny tell us how that woman helped you Walk the Line
Willie sing us Hello Walls cause we all know our flaws
We've been drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart.

That blonde there sitting on the floor my sad song made her cry
I think she caught my zipper bout the time I caught her eye
Well she can take my body home but who's gonna drive the car
We've been drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart.

Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
Crying blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart.

Now I sip my Chivits from a fancy crystal glass
A young ambitions eight piece pot band a pushing at my ass
While we're singing for the money I think back to the start
When we were drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart.

So let's start drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
Crying blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart...
