I feel better when I'm drinking, it just seems to ease
my mind
And all my worries and troubles, they just seem to
fade behind
Oh the secret of the bottle it may never be known
So I'll raise my glass and propose a toast and this
one baby is for you
I start to laugh when I'm drinking, I may tell a joke
or two
Sometimes I'll even pretend that I'm still in love
with you
Oh the secret of the bottle it may never be known
So I'll raise my glass and propose a toast and this
one baby is for you
And you ask me if I've felt pain
After all that I've been through
I've paid more than just my dues
I felt the pain of you
I feel the pain when I'm drinking, it just don't seem
to cut as deep
And when I lay down without you it makes it easy to go
to sleep
Oh the secret of the bottle it may never be known
So I'll raise my glass and propose a toast and this
one baby is for you
