Blues in the bottle, blues in the bottle Where do you think you're at, pretty mama? Blues in the bottle, where do you think you're at? You went and kicked my dog And now you drowned my cat Gone to Chattanooga, gone to Chattanooga See my ponies run, pretty mama Gone to Chattanooga, to see my ponies run If I win a prize I'll give my baby some Rooster chews tobacco, rooster chews tobacco Hen uses snuff, pretty mama Rooster chews tobacco, and the hen uses snuff The baby chickens don't take nothin' But they just strut their stuff Gone to silly putty, gone to silly putty Sorry I can't take you, pretty mama Gone to silly putty, sorry I can't take you I can't abide no woman Who goes 'round sniffin' glue

(Gary Rossington - Dale Krantz Rossington - Johnny VanZant) Well, there's a devil in the bottle, staring straight at me Daring me to reach out, but I know he's testing me If I take just one sip, I become that devil's son Act a fool, sell my soul before God and everyone Oh Lord, I know, I only hurt the ones I love I'm walkin' down this dead end road, all alone and by myself Wish I could blame the whiskey, but I can only blame myself Running out of chances, and Lord that's such a crime I got to find the answer before I lose my mind Oh Lord its a cryin shame, oh Lord I've caused so much pain I only hurt the ones I love There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be So many times I've been hurtin' my soul and family But I got free on the day I fought the Devil in the bottle The next time that ol' devil tries to get the best of me I'll smash that bottle against the wall and know I'm finally free There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be There's so many times I let him hurt me I got free the day I fought the Devil in the bottle Devil in the bottle Devil in the bottle

What a day for a daydream What a day for a daydreamin' boy And I'm lost in a daydream Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy And even if time ain't really on my side It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside I'm blowin' the day to take a walk in the sun And fall on my face on somebody's new-mowed lawn I've been havin' a sweet dream I been dreamin' since I woke up today It's starrin' me and my sweet thing 'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way And even if time is passin' me by a lot I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin' my load A pie in the face for bein' a sleepy bull toad And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right A daydream will last long into the night Tomorrow at breakfast you may prick up your ears Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years What a day for a daydream Custom-made for a daydreamin' boy And I'm lost in a daydream Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy

She's one of those girls who seems to come in the spring One look in her eyes and you forget everything You had ready to say And I saw her today, yeah A younger girl keeps rollin' 'cross my mind No matter how much I try I can't seem to leave her mem'ry behind I remember her eyes, soft dark and brown Said she'd never been in trouble even in town A younger girl keeps rollin' 'cross my mind No matter how much I try I can't seem to leave her mem'ry behind A younger girl keeps rollin' 'cross my mind And should I hang around actin' like her brother? In a few more years they'd call us right for each other And why? If I wait I'll just die, yeah A younger girl keeps rollin' 'cross my mind No matter how much I try I can't seem to leave her mem'ry behind I remember her eyes, soft dark and brown Said she'd never been in trouble even in town A younger girl keeps rollin' 'cross my mind She's one of these girls who seems to come in the spring One look in her eyes and you forget everything You had ready to say

It's really true how nothin' matters No mad, mad world and no mad hatters No one's pitchin' 'cause their ain't no batters In coconut grove Don't bar door, there's no one comin' The ocean's roar will dull the drummin' Of any city thoughts or city way The ocean breezes cool my mind The salty days are hers and mine Just to do what we want to Tonight we'll find a dune that's ours And softly she will speed the stars Until sunup It's all from havin' someone knowin' Just which way your head is blowin' Who's always warm, like in the mornin' In coconut grove The ocean breezes cool my mind The salty days are hers and mine Just to do what we want to Tonight we'll find a dune that's ours And softly she will speed the stars Until sunup It's really true how nothin' matters No mad, mad world and no mad hatters No one's pitchin' 'cause their ain't no batters In coconut grove

You and me and rain on the roof, Caught up in a summer shower, Drying while it soaks the flowers. Maybe we'll be caught for hours, Waiting out the sun. You and me, we're gathered away Deep in conversation, sitting in the hay. Honey, how long was I laughing in the rain with you? Cause I didn't feel a drop til the thunder brought us to. You and me underneath a roof of tin. Pretty comfy feeling, how the rain ain't leaking in. We can sit and dry just as long as it can pour. Cause the way it makes you look makes me hope it rains some more. You and me and rain on the roof, Caught up in a summer shower. Drying while it soaks the flowers Maybe we'll be caught for hours, Waiting out the sun.
