Don’t drink the bottle When I was a kid I found my daddy was a daddy that was strong He’d be some one that would do all right and never ever do things wrong But some nights seemed to change him something re-arranged him- he seemed gone As a kid I couldn’t see the spirits that had mingled the strong substance he was on Please don’t waste your life Don’t drink the bottle Please don’t waste your life Don’t drink the bottle I was named the same name as my daddy’s name and that’s the name of John But what I found would keep me down and our 2 life’s would separate the bond Some mornings I’d awaken, to see his hands a shakin’ from that substance he was on I’d be quiet in the morning forget my dad’s adoring feeling’s for me- they were gone Please don’t waste your life Don’t drink the bottle Please don’t waste your life Don’t drink the bottle Daddy don’t you change Don’t you re-arrange yourself Throw the bottle out And forget about the shelf I was only eighteen when my daddy was a waitin to move on Around the time of my own high school graduation he was gone Couldn’t believe my eye’s that that face so skeletonized was John To this day I wonder whether we could a been more together and have that bond Maybe if I yelled Pleaded to tell….my dad John Please don’t waste your life Don’t drink the bottle Please don’t waste your life Don’t drink the bottle Please don’t waste your life Get back in the saddle Please don't waste your life Don't drink the bottle
