Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down

Each night I leave the barroom when it's over
Not feelin' any pain at closing time
But tonight your memory found me, much too sober
Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind

Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memories come around
The one true friend I thought I've 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 do
Now I'm hurtin' in an old familiar way

Ooh, tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come around
The one true friend I thought I've found
Tonight the bottle let me down
Tonight the bottle let me down
