See that black boy over there runnin' scared
His old man in a bottle
He done quit his 9 to 5, he drink full time
And now he's livin', oooh, in a bottle
See that black boy over there runnin' scared
His old man got a problem and it's a bad one
He done pawned off damn near everything
His old woman's weddin' ring for a bottle
And don't you think it's a crime
Time after time after time
Livin' in the bottle?
There's people livin' in the bottle
Oh, listen to me
See that sister, sho’ was fine
Before she started drinkin’ wine in a bottle
She told me her old man committed a crime
He’s doin’ time and now she’s hangin’ in a bottle
I seen her out there on the avenue
All by herself, she sure need help from the bottle
I seen a preacherman try to help her out
She cussed him out and hit him in the head with a bottle
Don’t you think it’s a crime the way
Time after time after time
Livin' in the bottle
There’s people livin' in the bottle
In the bottle
In the bottle
You see that dude in the wrinkled suit
He done damn near blown his cool in the bottle
He was a doctor helpin’ young girls along
If they wasn’t too far gone to her problems
Defender of the dollar eagle said,
“What you doin, man, ain’t legal”, now he’s in the bottle
And now we watch him everyday
He’s tryin’ to chase the prisons away from the bottle
And don’t you think it’s a crime
Time after time after time
Livin' in the bottle
There’s people livin' in the bottle (in the bottle)
Here's another one
If you ever come lookin’ for me
You know where I’m gonna be, in the bottle
Don't go back in any corner
If you see some brother lookin’ like a goner, it’s gonna be me
Who!
Time after time after time
Livin' in the bottle
Go livin' in the bottle
Go livin' in the bottle (nobody cares!)
Livin' in the bottle
There's people livin' in the bottle
There's people livin' in the bottle (nobody cares!)
There's people livin' in the bottle
There's people livin' in the bottle (nobody cares!)
There's people livin' in the bottle
There's people livin' in the bottle
There's people livin' in the bottle
There's people livin' in the bottle
