lyrics

Hope by the bottle
Faith by the swig
This old bar stools my alter
And lovin' you was my sin

Takin' shots of whiskey
To forget about my pain
These lonely nights are callin'
And I hear your cries again

Drinking hope by the bottle
Faith by the swig
Hope by the bottle
Lovin' you was my sin

If you'd stayed we'd still be feuding
More bitter everyday
God shined his light upon you path
The day you walked away
The body count gets higher
The longer we're apart
I put my fist through tempered glass
To heal my aching heart

Drinking hope by the bottle
Faith by the swig
Hope by the bottle
Lovin' you was my sin

Ten years I've been forsaken
Been rotting in this hole
The sheriff says he'll see me swing
Before I catch parole

Soon I'll have my freedom
But freedom has its cost
The troubles I have found and
The love that I have lost

Drinking hope by the bottle
Faith by the swig
Hope by the bottle
Lovin' you was my sin

W.D. Miller Louisville, Kentucky

Channeling equal parts John Prine and Merle Haggard with a dash of Tom Waits. W.D.’s solemn guitar chords and gravelly intonations sing to the vagabond, disaffected spirits of country music’s past, while carving a new voice from traditions of rock n’ roll, blues and folk. ... more
