Mary McBride - By Any Other Name

Bottle and a Bible

Stopped by the liquor store
On the way to revival
Headed down the road
With a bottle and a bible
Took a little longer
Than I hoped it would
I want to thank you lord
For treating me good

Ever day, working on survival
It's hard to choose
Between the bottle and a bible

Part of me believes,
another part wonders
If the bottle's gonna win
and take me under
I know you love me lord
Just the way that I am
Cause you washed my sins
In the blood of that lamb

Every day, I struggle for survival
How can I choose
Between the bottle and a bible

I got back home
In the middle of the night
I knew where to go
Cause I seen the light
And I made good time
Cause I never stopped
Clear heart and mind
I never cracked the top

Every day, struggle for survival
But you made my choice
Between a bottle and a bible
Yeah, you made my choice
Between the bottle and a bible
