Didn't come in here the old sympathy

And a honky tonk please, the last thing I need

Just set me up with your best whiskey

Yeah, this is just between the the bottle and me

I don't wanna talk, I don't need a friend

Don't think I stuttered when I said

I'm here to deal with a memory

Yeah, this is just between the the bottle and me

Man can't face the cold hard truth

With nothing less than ninety proof

In closing time, that's when I leave

'til then it's just between the bottle and me

You're a good bartender, I know you wanna help

So if you see me talking to myself

Just walk away and let me be

Yeah, this is just between the bottle and me

A man can't face the cold hard truth

With nothing less than ninety proof

In closing time, that's when I leave

'til then it's just between the bottle and me

A man can't face the cold hard truth

With nothing less than ninety proof

In closing time is when I leave

'til then it's just between the bottle and me

'til then it's just between the bottle and me
