lyrics

Pass The Bottle

Pass the bottle back to me
You poor boy you look half dead
You know it’s very harazdous
To try to flee before your case is pled
Pass the bottle back to me
I hear you don’t like whiskey no more
After all the ghosts of all the damned
Started hanging outside your door

The verdict’s on the books
The grave’s already dug
Your body’s leaning on the brink
Life just passes by
In the blinking of an eye
There’s nothing left to do buy drink

Deny it all you want
Escape is not a choice
You heard the clanging of the gate
Every man’s a pebble
And every woman grist
When the grindstone starts to grate

Pass the bottle back to me
Won’t you let another man have a turn?
There’s no point in holding nothing back
When your bridges have all been burned
Pass the bottle back to me
You can whimper and you can plead
But there ain’t no place that you can hide
When the devils at last are freed
