Waylon Jennings - Time Between Bottles of Wine lyrics

With iron in my brain I'd laid down to rest Not carin' if I live or die Woke up a freezin' with rain pourin' down So hard I can't open my eyes. I been chased from the yard with dogs at my heels Searchin' for shelter at times But there's nothing so hard for a man on the bum As the time between bottles of wine. The time between bottles of wine. Beggin' for pennies just one sweet taste Of the nectar that k**s the man's soul Sweet piece of mind excuses my pride Just somethin' that keep out the cold. It's too late for me to start living again The good life is too far behind I never remembere the things that I've had Till the time between bottles of wine. The time between bottles of wine. If mama could see me she wouldn't believe I even resemble her son She would throw her life to make me a man And she's proud the child that she's done. What one love created another destroyed The story is older than time The tale of a man who just can't stand The time between bottles of wine. The time between bottles of wine. The time between bottles of wine. The time between bottles of wine...
