Bottle Of Gin - Dead Man's Canyon

 

You know I lost my baby to a bottle of gin

She took one look at my sorry face and she dived right in

Yeah she dived right in

You know I lost my baby to a bottle of gin

 

Well my shirt was unbuttoned

My collar was stained

My shirt smelt of perfume and my breath of champagne

And she knew that I'd been playin' the fool

 

Well she dived into the gin and she hadn't even learned how to swim

 

You know I lost my baby to a bottle of gin

She took one look at my sorry face and she dived right in

Yeah she dived right in

Well you know I lost my baby to a bottle of gin

 

She opened that bottle and knocked it right down

And ever since then my baby's been gone

Oh baby where have you gone

She dived into the gin and she hadn't even learned how to swim

 

Well you know I lost my baby to a bottle of gin

She took one look at my sorry face and she dived right in

Yeah she dived right in

Well you know I lost my baby to a bottle of gin

 

Oh babe if you can hear me didn't mean you no harm

Was a fool for one night and I wont do it again

Well come back baby

I didn't mean you no harm
