YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR BABY AND YOUR BOTTLE TOO

You can't have your baby and your bottle too. 
You can't be happy when you're feeling blue. 
You had your chance but you wouldn't hear, 
How you sit at the bar and cry in your beer. 
You thought it couldn't happen to you, 
You can't have your bottle and your baby too.
Something happened you didn't expect,
Now your baby's gone and your life is wrecked.
You won't be the first or last to fall,
If you get to chummy with Al K Hall.
She loved you once but now she's through
You can't have your bottle and your baby too.
An empty bottle and a lonely life,
A lot of memories of a loving wife.
A lot of wishes that won't come true,
No you can't have your baby and your bottle too.
You hitched your horse behind the cart,
You even got a broken bottle and an empty heart.
A lot of forgetting you'd like to do,
'Cause you can't have your baby and your bottle too.
