From The Bottle To The Bottom Testo

You ask me if I❝m happy now
That❝s good as any joke I❝ve heard
It seems that since I❝ve seen you last
I done forgot the meaning of the words
If happiness is empty rooms
And drinkin❝ in the afternoon
Well I suppose I❝m happy as a clam
But if it❝s got a thing to do
With smilin❝ of forgettin❝ you
Well I don❝t guess that I could say I am

Chorus:
Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew
When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper
He❝s been puttin❝ in his shoes to keep the ground from comin❝ through
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants
Because he❝s never seen a single dream come true
That❝s the way that I❝ve been feelin❝ since the day I started falling
>from the bottle to the bottom stool by stool
Learnin❝ hard to live with losin❝ you
You wonder if I❝m better off
With freedom now to do the things I choose
With all my times my own and
I got nothin❝ left but sleepin❝ time to lose
There❝s no one here to carry on
If I stay out the whole night long
Or give a tankerous damn if I don❝t call
I❝m livin❝ like I wanted to
And doin❝ things I wanna do
And nothin❝ means a thing to me at all

Chorus:
Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew
When the water from the weeds soaked the paper
He❝s been puttin❝ in his shoes to keep the ground from comin❝ through
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants
Because he❝s never seen a single dream come true
That❝s the way that I❝ve been feelin❝ since the day I started falling
>from the bottle to the bottom stool by stool
Learnin❝ hard to live with losin❝ you
