Bottle of Whisky

I went out
to get my bottle of whiskey
I laid low by the riverside
now my only sin is praying I'll die
they say fools rush in
where the wise man may never go
I'm that fool down from the start
drowning in booze with a screaming heart
I went out
far as a bottle would take me
I gave up
on a love and it died
now my baby's untrue
my bottle never lies

now my baby's untrue
my bottle never lies
never lies
never lies
