Cork In the Bottle

I've spent a lot of time a drinking running with the wrong crowd while I gave up the only thing that made my life worthwhile Well I've said goodbye to loved ones and I've burned a bridge or two just me and this bottle in a lonely hotel room I'll put the cork back on the bottle put the bottle on the shelf stay with me tonight my friend your all that I have left I've spent my life life in bar rooms drinking with my friends I've stayed out late,done things wrong this life I lead must end I'll come down off this highway get down on my knees stay with me tonight my Lord and make this my last plead And I'll put the cork back on the bottle put the bottle on the shelf pray with me tonight my Lord your all that I have left..... This was written to be a song.......

Christians pray with their hands clasped tightly together so there god can't give them anything. But you don't need any god's help to change your attitude and your life! Aloha! Rico
