Every day you tell me I'm a drunkard
And every night you lie awake and stew
I never claimed to be anything other, darling
'Cause the bottle never lets me down the way you do
[Verse 2]
Every night I sit 'til sun-up drinkin'
And every day I wait for night to fall
So I can clear the darkest mem'ries from my recollection
And hear no sounds and feel nothing at all
[Chorus]
The bottle never lets me down
You won't find it running 'round
In the darkest corners of this town
Away from me
No, I keep this bottle close in hand
It's the only thing left that I got that I can
Make me feel the man I used to be
[Verse 3]
I never want to remember the joy you bought me
Oh, how I used to laugh, I loved the things we'd do
I've forgotten all about the things that could be, darling
'Cause the bottle never lets me down the way you do
[Chorus]
The bottle never lets me down
You won't find it running round
In the darkest corners of this town
Away from me
No, I keep this bottle close in hand
It's the only thing left that I got that I can
Make me feel the man I used to be
Make me feel the man
Make me feel the man
Make me feel the man I used to be
[Verse 1] Every day you tell me I'm a drunkard And every night you lie awake and stew I never claimed to be anything other, darling 'Cause the bottle never lets me down the way you do [Verse 2] Every night I sit 'til sun-up drinkin' And every day I wait for night to fall So I can clear the darkest mem'ries from my recollection And hear no sounds and feel nothing at all [Chorus] The bottle never lets me down You won't find it running 'round In the darkest corners of this town Away from me No, I keep this bottle close in hand It's the only thing left that I got that I can Make me feel the man I used to be [Verse 3] I never want to remember the joy you bought me Oh, how I used to laugh, I loved the things we'd do I've forgotten all about the things that could be, darling 'Cause the bottle never lets me down the way you do [Chorus] The bottle never lets me down You won't find it running round In the darkest corners of this town Away from me No, I keep this bottle close in hand It's the only thing left that I got that I can Make me feel the man I used to be Make me feel the man Make me feel the man Make me feel the man I used to be Explain Request ×
