Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down Lyrics

Each night I leave the barroom when it's over
Not feeling any pain at closin' time
But tonight your mem'ry found me much too sober
I couldn't drink enough to get you off my mind.
Tonight the bottle let me down
Let your mem'ry come around
The one true friend that I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down.

--- Instrumental ---
I've always had a bottle I could turn to
Lately I've been turning every day
But the booze don't take effect the way it used to
I keep a hurtin' in an old familiar way.

Tonight the bottle let me down
Let your mem'ry come around
The one true friend that I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down.
--- Instrumental ---

Tonight the bottle let me down
Let your mem'ry come around
The one true friend that I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down...
