Back On The Bottle
Lyrics
I used to drink my weight in whiskey
But that was back before you came along
You told me that you loved and I was crazy
And darlin', you weren't wrong
It was good while it lasted
But I guess you thought it lasted too long
At first my heart was sinking
And then I got to thinking
All my reasons for not drinking are gone
Hallelujah
Good Lord, amen
Break out the bourbon
Long necks and gin
Open the bar room
Call up my old friends
'Cause, I'm back (I'm back)
Back on the bottle again
It's funny just a week ago
'Bout now, I'd be callin' it a night
Instead of asking for permission
Now I'm asking some angel for a light
Just because I shut her down
Don't mean that I can't start it up again, mmhm
Hello, hangover
It was strange being sober
But now that that's all over
Yeah, I'm back on the bottle again
(One-two-three)
Hallelujah
Good Lord, amen
Break out the bourbon
Long necks and gin
Open the bar room
Call up my old friends
'Cause, I'm back (woo hoo)
Back on the bottle again
Hallelujah
Good Lord, amen
Break out the bourbon
Long necks and gin
Open the bar room
Call up my old friends
'Cause, I'm back (who's back?)
Yeah, I'm back (he's back)
I'm back (you know I'm back)
Back on the bottle again
