Slim Dusty - Brown Bottle Blues lyrics

rate me

When I was a young man lord I used to hang around

All those smart town women throw my money round

Drink that cold hard liquor now any blind fool can see

That that rotgut made a prime fool out of me

Sing them brown bottle blues, brown bottle blues

wore the soles right out of my shoes

Hey I'm sleepin on a park seat with a newspaper over me

I've got them, got them brown bottle blues

Sing them brown bottle blues, brown bottle blues

wore the soles right out of my shoes

Hey I'm sleepin on a park seat with a newspaper over me

I've got them, got them old brown bottle blues

Hey sing them brown bottle blues, brown bottle blues

wore the soles right out of my shoes

Hey I'm sleepin on a park seat with a newspaper over me

I've got them, got them old brown bottle blues
