lyrics

I went to the doctor, 'cause I was unwell
He said "my boy, you're all shot to hell
I'll write a prescription for sweet tonic wine,"
an hour later, everything's fine.

Old green bottle, she's done me in
Sweet fifteen, a right state I'm in.
I've drunk it all day, and I've drunk it all night.
Old green bottle, light up my life.

Pick me up, make me sick.
Up when I'm down, then down in a ditch.
Break my heart, come back for more,
That yellow dress, knocks me to the floor.

Old green bottle, she's done me in
Sweet fifteen, a right state I'm in.
I've drunk it all day, and I've drunk it all night.
Old green bottle, light up my life.

I am in prison
The light never shines
I can't see my bottle
So dark is the night.

Old green bottle, she's done me in
Sweet fifteen, a right state I'm in.
I've drunk it all day, and I've drunk it all night.
Old green bottle, light up my life.
