- Songwriters: Merle Haggard
Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come 'round
The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down
I've always had a bottle I could turn to
And lately I've been turning everyday
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
I'm hurting in an old familiar way
Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come 'round
The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down
Each night I leave the barroom when it's over
Not feeling any pain at closing time
But tonight your memory found me much to sober
Can't drink enough to keep you off my mind
Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come 'round
The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down
Tonight the bottle let me down
