The Bottle - Corey Smith

Its a sticky situation

That I’ve gotten myself into

Same old obligation

Has got me torn between this ole bottle and you

And I’ll probably choose the drinking

So you’re probably gonna pack your bags

Spent a few lonely

I was thinkin before you.

Before you come running back.

beggin me

To be a little stronger

To stay sober longer

Not to let you down

Must these demons haunt me

And lay their wicked burdens on me

Lord wont you show me

How to put the bottle down

I’ll put the bottle down

Another bourbon vacation

Has got me crawling on the floor

And I’m in no condition

To say a word when she comes walking through the door

The color starts fading

When I hear her crying up and down the hall

As I drift away

I can feel her praying

Saying lord will you show him heaven

After all the hell he’s been throgh

I can I be a little stronger

And not make her wonder

When I’m going to let her down

Must these demons haunt me

And lay their wicked burdens on me

And lord wont you show me how to put the bottle down

Can I be a little stronger

And not make her wonder

When I’m going to let her down

Must these demons haunt me

And lay their wicked burdens on me

And lord wont you show me how.

To put the bottle down

Lord I wontcha help me to be

Just a little stronger

And to stay sober longer

And not to let her down

Must these demons haunt me

And lay their wicked burdens on me

Ooh lord wont you show me how.

To put the bottle down
