Artist/Band: Jim Reeves
Lyrics for Song: Bottle Take Effect
Lyrics for Album: Jim Reeves [Camden] [1971]



Well, I'm sittin' here, a glass so near

Filled with my one concern

Oh bottle, you've done lead me to

The point of no return.

You took away my happy days

My life's a total wreck

You took the only things I love

So bottle, take effect.



Take effect and take away

These blues that drive me wild

Take effect, make me forget

These troubles for a while

Then just lead me to

Those lights of blue

On the corner of regret

In some bar room

I'll lose my gloom

So bottle, take effect.



--- Instrumental ---



You've took away my fortune

While I drank away my pride

Humiliation's my misfortune

And there's no place left to hide

The best place is the gutter

There I won't need respect

'Cause when in Rome

You'll do as the Romans do

Oh bottle, take effect.



Take effect, and take away

All these blues that drive me wild

Please take effect, make me forget

My troubles for a while

Then just lead me to

All those lights of blue

On the corner of regret

In some bar room

I'll lose my gloom

Oh bottle, take effect...
