Smaller Than the Bottle

(Roberts - Sims)



I used to be a big man in this town

Anyone can tell you I was known for miles around

I had money a family and a home so fine

Now I'm smaller than the bottle and weaker than the wine.



I'm just a shell of the man I used to be

I drown my hopes but not my memories

I've lost everything I owned and I'm sure to lose my mind

I'm smaller than the bottle and weaker than the wine.

I haven't seen my children in a year or more

They wouldn't recognize me if I'd walk up to the door

Fot I can't go there when I'm drinking and that's all the time

I'm smaller than the bottle and weaker than the wine.
