YOU AND A BOTTLE
©2003 Johnnie A. Lawson


I'VE BEEN SPENDING EVERY WAKING MOMENT
THINKIN' 'BOUT WHAT YOU DONE
AND LOOKIN' BACK AT ALL OF THE PAIN AND HEARTACHE
I CAN'T REMEMBER TOO MUCH FUN
I'D A'BEEN BETTER OFF IF YOU'D JUST SHOT ME
INSTEAD OF YOUR FOOLING AROUND
CAUSE THE HEART THAT YOU BROKE AIN'T MENDING SO EASY
AS IT SLOWLY TUMBLES TO THE GROUND

SO EVERY NIGHT I DROWN MY SORROWS
AND I TRY REAL HARD TO FORGET
BUT THE BOOZE AND MEMORIES AND THE THOUGHTS OF TOMORROW
AIN'T HAVING THE RIGHT EFFECT
I KEEP SEEING YOU AROUND EVERY CORNER
HELL, I THOUGHT THEY SAID THAT LOVE WAS BLIND
WELL, IT TOOK YOU AND A BOTTLE OF WHISKEY
TO HELP ME LOSE MY MIND

WELL NOW, A VAN JUST PULLED UP OUTSIDE
AND THREE MEN ARE COMING UP TO THE DOOR
THEY'RE ALL DRESSED IN WHITE AND THEY'RE BIG OL' GUYS
I WONDER WHAT THEY WANT ME FOR
AND THEY ARE CARRYING A BIG OL' WHITE LEATHER JACKET
AND I THINK IT LOOKS ABOUT MY SIZE
YOU KNOW, IT TOOK YOU AND A BOTTLE OF WHISKEY
TO HELP ME LOSE MY MIND
