Suzy Bogguss - The Bottle Let Me Down Lyrics

Suzy Bogguss Lyrics

"The Bottle Let Me Down"
(originally by Merle Haggard)

Each night, I leave the barroom when it's over
Not feeling any pain at closing time
But tonight, your memory found me much too sober
Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind

Tonight, the bottle let me down
And let your memory come around
The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight, the bottle let me down

I've always had a bottle I could turn to
And lately, I've been turnin' every day
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
And I'm hurtin' in old familiar ways

Tonight, the bottle let me down
And let your memory come around
The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight, the bottle let me down
Tonight, the bottle let me down

The Bottle Let Me Down

I Always Get Lucky With You

If We Make It Through December

Let's Chase Each Other Around The Room

The Running Kind

Going Where The Lonely Go

Someday When Things Are Good

I Think I'll Just Stay Here And Drink

Sing Me Back Home

You Don't Have Very Far To Go
