For seven long years
She helped me spend my dough
Now I take her out
She don't wanna know
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
( ) X 2
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
( ) X 4
That woman's got me drinking
We used to have some fun
Now shrinks and astrologers
Have got me on the run
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
( ) X 4
She said she'd always love me
She said I was the one
Now look at the way she treats me
Just like a piece of scum
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

Solo
over verse and chorus)
If I had the guts to do it
I'd take the long goodbye
Instead I'll love her long and hard
And love her 'til I die
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
Bottle of gin, bottle of gin, bottle of gin,
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
