Bottle To The Bottom Lyrics - Dierks Bentley

1 You ask me if I'm happy now

2 That's good as any joke I've heard

3 It seems since I've seen you last

4 I done forget the meaning of the words

5 If happiness is empty rooms

6 And drinkin' in the afternoon

7 Well I guess I'm as happy as a clam

8 But if it's got a thing to do

9 With smilin' or forgettin' you

10 Well I don't guess that I could say I am

11 Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone

12 Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew

13 When the water from the weeds had soaked the papers

14 He'd been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' though

15 And his future feels as empty as the pockets in his pants

16 Because he's never seen a single dream come true

17 That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling

18 From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool

19 Learnin' hard to live with losin' you

20 You wonder if I'm better off

21 With freedom now to do the things I choose

22 Well all my times my own and

23 I've got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose

24 There's no one here to carry on

25 If I stay out the whole night long

26 Or give a tinkers damn if I don't call

27 I'm livin' like I wanted to

28 And doin' things I wanna do

29 And nothin' means a thing to me at all

30 Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone

31 Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew

32 When the water from the weeds had soaked the papers

33 He'd been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' though

34 And his future feels as empty as the pockets in his pants

35 Because he's never seen a single dream come true

36 That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling

37 From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool

38 Learnin' hard to live with losin' you
