No man ever sounded so lonesome No man ever made you feel such pain Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle That made you sing that way. The stories you told about prison About a young man gone astray Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle That made you write the songs that way. Chorus: A real mean bottle Poured straight from the devil It's a miracle you're standin' here today A real mean bottle Made you such a rebel It must have been a real mean bottle Made you sing that way. You spent most all your life with strangers With a ramblin' fever in your veins Hag, it must have been a real mean bottle That made you play the blues that way. Chorus: A real mean bottle Poured straight from the devil It's a miracle you're standin' here today A real mean bottle Made you such a rebel It must have been a real mean bottle Made you sing that way. A real mean bottle Poured straight from the devil It must have been a real mean bottle Made you sing that way...
