Lyrics
THAT'S HALF THE BOTTLE
(THAT'S HALF THE BATTLE)
VERSE: I been sitting on this barstool since five oh five
I'd go on home but an empty house just ain't worth the drive
Yeah she up and left me but I found a long lost friend
If anybody gonna see me through old J.D. can
CHORUS: That's half the bottle that's half the battle
I'm gonna sit right here til I drink you off my mind
Drive away my troubles with three or four more doubles
J.D. and me will claim victory at closing time
VERSE: I know right well she ain't coming back
After all the things I did it's way too late for that
But she didn't take her memory with her when she left
Lucky for me I remember how to forget
CHORUS
Karl Williams (ASCAP) / Robert C. Welsh (ASCAP) / Doc Randolf (BMI)
