Em
Somewhere right below the edge that is where i aim my pledge
D                              A                Em
Though the truth is often such, i end up having way too much
You know society reward, me though i don't work at all
I'm drinking down to my last dime, the bottle beat me one more time

D   A                       Em
Heyaa, the bottle beat me one more time

Some say that i've been running 'round, with different girls from town to town
Of all the women that i've met, there ain't many i regret
Dirty Susie ain't my kind, but i gave her all that's in my might
Turn out she would have my child, the bottle beat me one more time

Heyaa, the bottle beat me one more time
Heyaa, the bottle beat me.....take her away

[Solo]

Chocked by my virility, i felt responsibility
So i took advices from the boys, and dinner seemed a real good choice
Man you should've seen her act when see finally faced the fact
That i had just invited her, to go out on a date

Heyaa, the bottle beat me one more time

So we went down and had a seat, at the lokal joint just down the street
Staring at the starful sky, i saw tears in her eyes
I ordered in the cheapest vine, when suddenly it crossed my mind
That Susie in the candle light, was not such an unpleasent sight

We talked about 'most everything and i had to have a few more drinks
And i would say that things went fine, until the devil caught me in my prime

[Solo]

Oh my Susie don't you cry, all those things i said were lies
What happend was the other night, the bottle beat me one more time

Heyaa, the bottle beat me one more time
Heyaa, the bottle beat me...
