Well son, I lived a good life
And for sure I lived a bad
And I still love this lifestyle
That would scared most folks to death
A fiendish tempter lies within
The bottle's glass and crystal skin
A demon's brew a deadly sin
With every sip, he haunts your mind
And whispers curses so unkind
Until you're fallin' deeper in
Please tell the world that I've tried
There's a devil in the bottle
And deep down he sings his songs
And I can't help myself, I can't help myself
I have to sing along
This devil in the bottle
Lurks deep within the glass
And he waits to take over
And make your soul his mass
Another sip a taste of bliss
He'll drag you down in his abyss
He twists and turns your mind and soul
Liquid poison, clear and bright
Paralyzed but so alive
He calls to me to take me home
Please tell the world that I've tried
There's a devil in the bottle
And deep down he sings his songs
And I can't help myself, I can't help myself
I have to sing along
