The Bottle Let Me Down (2001 Digital Remaster)-Merle Haggard

[00:16.57]Each night I leave the bar room when it's over [00:24.05]Not feeling any pain at closing time [00:31.63]But tonight your memory found me much too sober [00:39.36]Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind [00:46.96][01:09.89][02:03.25][02:26.28][02:33.72]Tonight the bottle let me down [00:54.48][02:10.79]And let your memory come around [01:02.13][02:18.40]The one true friend I thought I'd found [01:32.65]I've always had a bottle I could turn to [01:40.25]And lately I've been turning every day [01:47.77]But the wine don't take effect the way it used to [01:55.53]And I'm hurting in old familiar ways
