round and round the bottle - tanya tucker lyrics

[verse 1]
grandma was a pretty thing when she was just sixteen
she fell in love with a full grown man who ran off with a barroom queen
my daddy was just a baby then, but he remembers to this day
his old man stumblin’ down the street ‘til his mama made him look away

[chorus]
round and round the bottle goes, where it stops n0body knows
many are the good souls left alone
round and round the bottle spins, ‘til it knocks you down again
and the victims of the drunkard wait at home

[verse 2]
daddy worked the oil fields all along the east tex line
then he moved us all to tulsa where his oil wells changed to wine
but i remember one christmas evening, oh, santa never showed
and mama cried herself to sleep that night and my daddy came home with the law

[bridge]
my grandma’s dead and my daddy’s drunk somewhere in oklahoma
and mama moved back to texas long ago, yeah
look at me, here i am, my daddy’s only daughter
sharin’ little secrets with a man i barely know, oh
[chorus]
round and round the bottle goes, where it stops n0body knows
many are the good souls left alone, yeah
round and round the bottle spins, ‘til it knocks you down again
and the victims of the drunkard wait at home
