Back on the Bottle Songtext
von Brothers Osborne

I used to drink my weight in whiskey
But that was back before you came along
You told me that you loved me and I was crazy
And darlin′, you weren't wrong

It was good while it lasted
But I guess you thought it lasted too long
At first my heart was sinkin′
And then I got to thinkin'
All my reasons for not drinkin' are gone

(One, two, three)
Hallelujah, good Lord, amen
Break out the bourbon, long necks, and gin
Open the bar room, call up my old friends
′Cause, I′m back (I'm back)
Back on the bottle again


It′s funny, just a week ago 'bout now
I′d be callin' it a night
Instead of asking for permission
Now I′m asking some angel for a light

Just because I shut her down
Don't mean that I can't start it up again (mm-hmm)
Hello hangover, it was strange being sober
But now that that′s all over
Yeah, I′m back on the bottle again

(One, two, three)
Hallelujah, good Lord, amen
Break out the bourbon, long necks, and gin
Open the bar room, call up my old friends
'Cause, I′m back (woo-hoo)
Back on the bottle again

Hallelujah, good Lord, amen
Break out the bourbon, long necks, and gin
Open the bar room, call up my old friends
'Cause I′m back (who's back?)
Yeah, I′m back
I'm back (you know I'm back)
Back on the bottle again
