I've got a feeling I might walk on over the hill 
I'm bent but not broken, all I Dneed is some rest 
And a Fbottle of Cyour very Gbest, DBlackberry Gwine
[VERSE 2:]
There's a new moon rising and the wind sings its old song 
Pass it on over it's a sin to be sober too long 
I'm bent but not broken, all I Dneed is my share 
Of a Fbottle of Cthat very Grare, DBlackberry Gwine

Try as she will she can't get me to come home on time

I'll be soft spoken, all I Dneed is my rest 
And a Fbottle of Cyour very Gbest, DBlackberry Gwine
[VERSE 4:]
Now my days are numbered and one more heel's been killed
Blackberry John left me his old recipe in his will 
I'm bent but not broken, all I Dneed is some time 
And a Fbottle of Cyour very Gfine, DBlackberry Gwine
