Hand Me The Bottle

Hand Me The Bottle

won´t you, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time

´cause i need a little courage
down deep in my soul
i need the fruit of the vine
to make me bold
so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine

i need a little courage
to make him understand
that a woman like me
needs a understanding man

but, he gets upset
when i come home
´cause it´s three in the mornin´
and i didn´t phone

so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time

i want to tell him
that i just don´t care
but all i can do
is stumble and stare

he keeps on tellin´ me
i need to do my part
´cause he doesn´t understand
a woman and her art

so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time

´cause i need a little courage
down deep in my soul
i need the fruit of the vine
to make me bold
so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine

i´ve tried to hold down a job
i´ve tried to make it stick
but there´s something about it
that makes me sick

i got up too late
again to start
i guess me and the mornin´s
just grown apart

so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time

i want to sit him down
at the kitchen table
speak my mind
but i´m just not able

my hands start shakin´
my tongue gets tied
and it´s all because
my throat´s so dry

so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time

i´m gonna go right now
and let him know
we can´t go like this
it´s time for him to go

but if he´d change his ways
and leave me alone
i know we could be living
in a happy home

but i´m feelin´ a little woozie
i need a little rest
in an hour or two
i´ll be at my at best

then i´ll go right home
and i´ll get right to it
if he hadn´t gone to work
then tomorrow i´ll do it

so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine

´cause i need a little courage
down deep in my soul
i need the fruit of the vine
to make me bold
so, hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time
won´t you hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
won´t you, pass it over
pass it over one more time
hand me the bottle
hand me the bottle of wine
