George Jones - Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down lyrics

TONIGHT THE BOTTLE LET ME DOWN

WRITER MERLE HAGGARD

Tonight the bottle let me down

I've always had a bottle that I could turn to and lately I've been turning every day

But the wine don't take effect the way it used to

And I'm a hurtin' in an old familiar way

Tonight the bottle let me down and let your mem'ry come around

The one true friend I thought I'd found tonight the bottle let me down

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 keep you off my mind

Tonight the bottle...

Tonight the bottle let me down
