Jason Boland & the Stragglers - Bottle By My Bed lyrics

My life was as empty As the bottle by my bed My friends turned into strangers And I was all but dead Jeasus came and found me there That day those damons bled When my life was as empty As the bottle by my bed My first taste of the spirit It brought me to my knees I knew that I was helpless I prayed lord help me please Each time was the last time That's what I always said When my life was as empty As the bottle by my bed By my bed Everything seemed further out of reach And in my head Oh I found it hard To pratice what i preached And now I'm going back home It's down this path I'm lead And I'm no longer empty Like the bottle by my bed Sometimes this road gets lonesome And I wish that I could fly So don't be afraid to stop me When I pa** you by We'll sit and watch the sun go down As the waters turn to red And if you'd like I could tell you All about the bottle by my bed By my bed Everything seemed further out of reach And in my head Oh I found it hard To pratice what I preached And now I'm going back home It's down this path I'm lead And I'm no longer empty Like the bottle by my bed Thank god that I'm not empty Like the bottle by my bed
