lyrics

When i was a young girl
i rambled and i gambled
and i flirted with the cowboys
so pretty young and fine
I would never have a fear
I would drink whiskey and beer
and the bottles full of nectar
from the fruits upon the vine
So won't you open another bottle
cause my throught is thirsty and dry
i sure would like a taste of that whiskey
one more time before i die
Well i never had a husband
never had a real hometown
but the whole world was my lover
when i drank a bottle down
A party here and a party there
a pair of kinky underwears
and a pile of napkins
next to all the whiskey
down the stairs
So won't you open another bottle ...
I've done a lot of stupid things
but i never wore a ring
never found a man who was brave enough
to try and be my king
Still i kept looking for that prince
to bring me fortune and good luck
and thank God i had a bottle
when again my heart got stuck
So won't you open another bottle...
And now i'm an old woman
my life's a memory
there's times i don't remember
how things used to be
But there ain't no shame or sadness
for my life of drunken madness
if i had a second go you know...
i'd do it all again
So won't you open another bottle...
