Lyrics
Blues in the Bottle, Blues in the Bottle
Stopper in my right hand
Blues in the Bottle, stopper in my right hand
Get yourself another woman, I?ve got myself another man
My mind is hazy, my mind is hazy
My soul is upside down
My mind is hasy, my soul is upside down
Get this low down feelin?, I know the blues is hangin? round
Remember what you told me Remember what you told me
Standin? in my kitchen cryin?
Remember what you told me Standin? in my kitchen cryin?
Said you?d never leave me, said I was always on your mind
Now you?re gonna leave me Now you?re gonna leave me
You?re takin? all your love down town
Now you?re gonna leave me; You?re takin? all your love down town
I know you?re gonna? be sorry when your good gal ain?t around
