Johnny Bond - 10 Little Bottles lyrics

rate me

A friend of mine gave me<br />

Ten little bottles of<br />

Some special stuff that he<br />

Had brewed up hisself<br />

<br />

So I took it and hid it<br />

Down in my basement<br />

But my wife found out about it<br />

And she told me to<br />

Get rid of it or else<br />

<br />

Since I didn't like the<br />

Way she said, or else<br />

I went down there and proceeded<br />

To carry out her instructions<br />

<br />

I set the ten little<br />

Bottles on the drainboard<br />

Picked up the first bottle<br />

Pulled the cork out of it<br />

And poured it down the sink<br />

That is, all except one<br />

Little swaller, which I drank<br />

<br />

I picked up the next bottle<br />

And I pulled the cork out of it<br />

And I poured it down the sink<br />

All except one little swaller<br />

Which I drank<br />

<br />

I picked up the next bottle<br />

And I pulled the sink out of it<br />

And I poured it down the sink<br />

All except one little swaller<br />

Which I drank<br />

<br />

I picked up the next sink<br />

And I pulled the bottle out of it<br />

And I poured it down the cork<br />

All except one little swaller<br />

Which I drank<br />

<br />

I picked up the next cork<br />

And I pulled the sink out of it<br />

And I poured it down the bottle<br />

All except one teensy weensy<br />

Little swaller, which I sank<br />

<br />

I, I, I usually have a little<br />

Difficulty with this number<br />

You see I come from a<br />

Great long line of stinkers<br />

Uh, drinkers<br />

<br />

I had an uncle that<br />

Drank a quart a day<br />

Every day of his life<br />

Heck, me I spell more than that<br />

<br />

No kidding<br />

He could drink a quart<br />

And not even stagger<br />

Heck, he couldn't even move<br />

<br />

We told him, we says<br />

You better quit drinking that stuff<br />

It's gonna kill you<br />

Sure enough, it killed him<br />

He died last year at the<br />

Age of a hundred and two<br />

<br />

Well, don't laugh<br />

We dug him up last week<br />

He looks better than y'all do now<br />

<br />

A guy back here asked me, he says<br />

What's the difference between<br />

A drunk and an alchoholic<br />

Well, I'll tell you<br />

Us drunks don't have to attend all<br />

Them dang old meetings, you know<br />

<br />

I don't like your bartenders here<br />

In Nashville, I'll tell you that<br />

I says to this guy, give me<br />

Something cold and full of gin<br />

He says, take my wife<br />

<br />

You see, you got me all confused<br />

How many bottles have I got left<br />

How many have I got, five<br />

You're seeing double<br />

There's only two and a half<br />

<br />

I want you to know one other thing<br />

You better not say nothing<br />

Against my wife, buster<br />

Cause I'll have you know<br />

I'll have you know that I<br />

Got the wifest nice in<br />

The whole United States
