[intro] [1] [verse] Woke up in an alley, after drinkin' all night long Pockets turned inside out, just the jingle of a song Still my throat is burning, gotta find another pour Bacchus is a callin', right there at my liquor store [chorus] Oh, Bacchus Blues, it's deep inside my bones That whiskey burnin' down, eases all my moans Gotta remember, these dirty, gritty days Look into the glass, see my life in a drunken haze [2] [verse] Sometimes an old flame, she flashes in my mind Ice in my glass melts, tears make the whiskey blind Dreamt a stupid dream, yeah, foolish as can be Can't get no sleepin', without this drink with me [chorus] Oh, Bacchus Blues, it's deep inside my bones That whiskey burnin' down, eases all my moans Gotta remember, these dirty, gritty days Look into the glass, see my life in a drunken haze [bridge] Fell down so many times, had no choice but to stand tall My scraped up knees, my dry lips, I've seen it all Washed it down with liquor, tried to fool myself you see But deep down I know, ain't nothin' changed for me [chorus] Oh, Bacchus Blues, it's deep inside my bones That whiskey burnin' down, eases all my moans Gotta remember, these dirty, gritty days Look into the glass, see my life in a drunken haze [outro] When the sun goes down, and the bar lights start to glow I'll grab that glass again, nowhere else to go Bacchus Blues, a song that never ends Can you hear my voice, from the mud, my only friend?
