Time Between Bottles And Wine Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

With iron in my brain I'd laid down to rest 

Not carin' if I live or die 

Woke up a freezin' with rain pourin' down 

So hard I can't open my eyes. 

I been chased from the yard with dogs at my heels 

Searchin' for shelter at times 

But there's nothing so hard for a man on the bum 

As the time between bottles of wine. 

The time between bottles of wine. 

Beggin' for pennies just one sweet taste 

Of the nectar that kills the man's soul 

Sweet piece of mind excuses my pride 

Just somethin' that keep out the cold. 

It's too late for me to start living again 

The good life is too far behind 

I never remembere the things that I've had 

Till the time between bottles of wine. 

The time between bottles of wine. 

--- Instrumental --- 

If mama could see me she wouldn't believe 

I even resemble her son 

She would throw her life to make me a man 

And she's proud the child that she's done. 

What one love created another destroyed 

The story is older than time 

The tale of a man who just can't stand 

The time between bottles of wine. 

The time between bottles of wine. 

The time between bottles of wine. 

The time between bottles of wine...
