Yes, it's uncouth. But we've all done it.

lyrics

Drinking Wine Straight From the Bottle

What does it mean when you've gone and lost touch
With the people who shaped you in your formative years
You finally get together got nothing to say
Plenty of laughter but you need some tears
Well you were the one who had to get on that train
I saw you wave goodbye in the pouring rain
But that's all in the past now you've got no one to blame

When you're drinking wine straight from the bottle
drinking wine straight from the bottle
drinking wine straight from the bottle

Why does it seem like the weight of the world
Is pushing against you just like a knife?
You finally thought you could lay back a while
but now you find you're in the fight of your life
Well you took your best shot at fortune and fame
I saw you hit rock bottom when you lost the game
But take a look around now you've got no one to blame

When you're drinking wine straight from the bottle
drinking wine straight from the bottle
drinking wine straight from the bottle

Why does it seem like you used to care more
About whittling away at the things you don't know?
You kind of gave up on the universe
Found yourself a corner just hoe your row
Well you can tell maple from pine by the grain
I saw you save a spider before he went down the drain
But being good and smart means you've got no one to blame

When you're drinking wine straight from the bottle
drinking wine straight from the bottle
drinking wine straight from the bottle
