Bottle Bottle

Porter Wagoner · The Bottom of the Bottle (RCA Victor) [1968]

(Larry Kingston)



Bottle, bottle, why do I love you so much.



Gasping for air I come up from your lips

Amazed at the beauty at my fingertips

Awed by the softness and warmth of your touch

Bottle, bottle, why do I love you so much?



You give me the strenght to go on day by day

You help keep the mem'ries of a lost love away

She left me crippled but I've found my crutch

Bottle, bottle, why do I love you so much?



Your warmth and your beauty make me thirsty for more

I can't get enough of what you hold in store

Your amber reflection I see in my glass

My only regret is that you're empty too fast.



Bottle, bottle, please don't let me down

Fight off the feeling that's always around

Fill me with contentment and hold to my hand

And bottle, bottle, I'll be in your command...
