Merle Haggard - The bottle let me down - down every road version lyrics

Each night I leave the bar room when it's over Not feeling any pain at closing time But tonight your memory found me much too sober I can'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' everyday But the wine don't take effect the way it used to And I'm hurtin' in an old familiar way 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
