Bilingual
each night i'd leave the barroom when it's over
not feelin' any pain at closein' time
but tonight your mem'ry found me much too sober
coudln't drink enough to keep you off my mind
tonight the bottle let me down
ย
and let your mem'ry 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' ev'ry day
but the wine don't take effect the way it used to
i'm hurtin' in an old familiar way
