Here we are again tonight at our corner table And the girl behind the bar just dimmed the lights The jukebox plays an old country love song And I'm holding on to you with all my might Hey, bottle of whiskey She's long since been gone And her memory seems to be The kind that lingers on
I try to shake it off But here it comes again Hey, bottle of whiskey I thought you were my friend ♪ Now I'm holding on to you the way I held her And your face reflects the sadness in my eyes I can see I'm singing to an empty bottle Like the emptiness she left me deep inside Hey, bottle of whiskey She's long since been gone And her memory seems to be The kind that lingers on
I try to shake it off But here it comes again Hey, bottle of whiskey I thought you were my friend Hey, bottle of whiskey I thought you were my friend
