GEORGE JONES
Last week he spent his whole paycheck on whiskey
And I know Friday night he'll do it all again
And he'll drink 'til he falls down
and he?ll order one more round
and then go home with that bottle in his hand
and the only thing I can hold onto
is this bottle in my hand
I know I'll never have to share it with any other man
I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can
To be faithful to this bottle in my hand
She told George that changing diapers
could sure become a drag
and to clean the house and cook for him
was not her kind of bag
she said he needed someone who would love and understand
and then she left him with that bottle in his hand
repeat the Chorus
Yes we'll be thankful for this bottle in our hanD
