Last week he spent his whole paycheck on whiskey

And I know on friday night he'll do it all again

Oh, he'll drink till he falls down then he'll order one more round

And then go home with that bottle in his hand.



Chorus:

And the only thing I can hold on to is this bottle in my hand

I'll know I'll never have to share it with any other man

I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can

To be faithful to this bottle in my hand.

She told George that changing diaper can sure become a drag

And the clean the house and cooking for him is not ger kind of bag

She said he needed someone who will love and understand

Then she left him with that bottle in his hand.



Chorus:

And the only thing I can count on now is this bottle in my hand

I'll know I'll never have to share it with any other man

And I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can

To be faithful to this bottle in my hand.



Yes, We'll be faithful with this bottle in our hand.
