The Devil In The Bottle Lyrics

Last night I picked it up again

Just to get that sweet taste

I never wanted this a-life

But lately that's my case

Prisons right down my path

There ain't nothing that I lack

With the Devil in the bottle

And those cold cuffs behind my back

It's the Devil in the bottle

He's still watching over me

Somebody please have mercy

I'm down here on my knees

It stings like a viper

It'll make you see strange things

Your heart will cry out

As you feel all it's pain

Traveling to my soul

Singing an ol' harmony

Cutting through my veins

And making me bleed

They all say I drink too much

That I'll never learn

So I'm sitting here alone

Letting all this whisky burn

It'll make you feel so wild and free

Life without a care

Don't let me see the bottom

Lord that's my prayer

It's the Devil in the bottle

He's still watching over me

Somebody please have mercy

I'm down here on my knees

It's the Devil in the bottle

He's still watching over me

Somebody please have mercy

I'm down here on my knees

It's the Devil in the bottle

He's still watching over me

Somebody please have mercy

I'm down here on my knees

It's the Devil in the bottle

He's still watching over me

Somebody please have mercy

I'm down here on my knees
