Lyrics: Patty Griffin. Other. Bubba's Sulky Lounge.


Please pass the bottle on
Pass it on and on
Till every drop is gone
Take down another one
Swing your partner 'round
Till you lose your name
Till you're a ball of flames
A wall of fire
High as a funeral pyre
Floating like the ashes
Lining up the empty glasses
All you laddies and lasses
Ring them bells tonight

You leave the warm glow
Behind the window
Of Bubba's Sulky Lounge
You head back out in the snow
You tilt your head back
Try to catch on your tongue
Every single one of them
Snowflakes
Floating like the ashes
Lining up the empty glasses
All you laddies and lasses
Ring them bells tonight
