Each night I leave the bar room when it's over I'm 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 Yeah, tonight the bottle let me down And let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Yeah, tonight the bottle let me down Sure do ♪ I've always had a bottle I could turn to Oh, and lately I've been turnin' every day But the wine don't take effect the way it used to And I'm hurtin' in an old familiar way Tonight the bottle let me down And let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down Yeah, tonight the bottle let me down
