We were drifting down a river Made of whiskey and wasted time Two lovers bound together Paying our love no mind and all the night were sleepless and hollow from drinking all day alone so far from where i ought to be and so close to calling it home I got married to the bottle and stay committed one drink at a time might run out of love once we reach the bottom but I'll be saying my vows tonight Well his daughter was born in december On the same day her brother died oh the river never went empty and neither did i but that current would carry our bodies through the mess and the rest of our crimes with my lover right beside me straight through to the day we die Marrie to the bottle, stay committed one drink at a time might run out of love once we reach the bottom but I'll be saying my vows tonight
