Now I live across town from the only one I love
|
No woman wants a man that drinks too much
|
I know she'd take me back again if I could quit for good
|
Lord knows I'd quit if I could
|
|
I'm not holdin' the bottle the bottle's holdin' me
|
I could win that goal I've lost but I'm not free
|
In my darling's loving arms that's where I wanna be
|
I'm not holdin' the bottle the bottle's holdin' me
|

|
My friends come around me but they can't stop the rain
|
The way you could if you were mine again
|
When that evening sun goes down they all hit for home
|
And leave me here all tied up alone
|
|
I'm not holdin' the bottle...
|
I'm not holdin' the bottle the bottle's holdin' me
|

Bottle's Holdin' Me
