[length: 04:03]
[00:02.13]One, one, one call
[00:04.78]The rhythm of rebirth and rejuvenation
[00:13.76]Livin’ in a bottle
[00:21.85]In a bottle
[00:24.04]You see that black boy over there runnin’ scared
[00:26.85]His old man in a bottle
[00:32.25]He done quit his nine to five, better drink full time
[00:34.70]And now he’s livin’ in a bottle
[00:39.87]You see that black boy over there runnin’ scared
[00:42.87]His old man got a problem, and it’s a bad one
[00:47.12]He done pawned off damn near everything
[00:49.78]His old woman’s weddin’ ring for a bottle
[00:56.16]Don’t you think it’s a crime?
[00:58.71]When time after time after time
[01:02.83]People in a bottle (livin’ in a bottle)
[01:05.92]’Cause people show ‘nough in the bottle (in a bottle)
[01:10.37]Hey, people in a bottle (livin’ in a bottle)
[01:14.29]Show ‘nough in the bottle (in a bottle)
[01:18.99]You see, that sister sure was fine
[01:21.10]Before she started drinkin’ wine from the bottle
[01:25.73]She told me her old man committed a crime, he’s doing time
[01:29.73]And now she’s hangin’ with a bottle
[01:33.78]I see her out there on the avenue all by herself
[01:37.85]She’ll need help from the bottle, I see her
[01:42.84]Preacher man tried to help her out
[01:44.51]She cussed him out and hit him in the head with a bottle
[01:51.30]Don’t you think it’s a crime?
[01:53.23]When time after time, every time
[01:58.19]People in a bottle (livin’ in a bottle)
[02:00.85]’Cause people show ‘nough in the bottle (in a bottle)
[02:05.63]Hey, people in a bottle (livin’ in a bottle)
[02:08.72]Show ‘nough in the bottle (in a bottle)
[02:13.92]See that gent in the wrinkled suit (won’t let go, yeah, baby)
[02:16.39](Won’t let go) he done damn near blown his cool in the bottle
[02:18.48](Won’t let go, yeah, baby, won’t let go)
[02:20.95]He was a (won’t let go) doctor helpin’ young girls along (yeah, baby)
[02:24.14](Won’t let go) if they wasn’t too far gone to have problems
[02:26.22](Won’t let go, yeah, baby, won’t let go)
[02:30.05]Defenders of the dollar eagle said, “What you’re doin’, Doc, ain’t legal”
[02:34.11]Now he’s in the bottle
[02:37.79]And now we watch him every day
[02:39.97]Tryin’ to chase the pigeons away with a bottle
[02:44.79]Oh, don’t you think it’s a crime? (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
[02:49.35]When time after time after time
[02:54.18]Don’t you think it’s a crime? (Don’t you think it’s a crime?)
[02:58.62]Time after time, freezing mind
[03:01.16]Livin’ in a bottle
[03:09.87]Don’t you think it’s a crime?
[03:12.32]When time after time, every time
[03:16.96]People in a bottle (livin’ in a bottle)
[03:19.55]’Cause people show ‘nough in the bottle (in a bottle)
[03:24.04]Hey, people in a bottle (livin’ in a bottle)
[03:28.19]Show ‘nough in the bottle (in a bottle)
[03:33.14]If you ever come looking for me (livin’ in a bottle)
[03:34.99]You know where I ain’t gonna be, in a bottle (in a bottle)
[03:40.73]Turn around, look around, baby, come back
[03:42.74]And if you see some sister there looking like a goner
[03:46.28]It ain’t gonna be me, no
[03:50.26](Livin’ in a bottle)
[03:54.33](In a bottle)
[03:58.24](Livin’ in a bottle)
