Left in a hurry
And I’m feeling kinda mean
My cleanest dirty shorts*
Ain’t none too clean
Stomach’s full of empty
My hair’s a disgrace
Didn’t even get a chance
To wash my face
Keep diving deeper
But I still ain’t hit
The bottom of the bottle
Is it time to quit?
Had to leave me a woman
Crazier than sin
Getting out was so much tougher
Than getting in
She took all I got
And tied me to her bed
It’s wonder to behold
That I ain’t dead
Keep diving deeper
But I still ain’t hit
The bottom of the bottle
Is it time to quit?
I’ve seen the seedy side
Of every bar and saloon
I drank in every dive
From here to the moon
Got a thousand sordid tales
That I could tell
Shared shots with the devil
In the pit of hell
Keep diving deeper
But I still ain’t hit
The bottom of the bottle
Is it time to quit?
