    THE GLASS He looked up from the glass he held so tenderly I could see in his eyes a sad memory Had he had enough was the question that I asked But he just smiled and nodded towards his empty glass Somewhere in the whiskey a man stood proud and tall He’d conquered many demons both big and small He’d had it rough sometime in his past But he’d came through it all with the help of the glass Oh the glass, the glass It’s ruined many a man Broken down homes That forever should stand Oh the glass, the glass That bottomless glass Has ruined many a future While conquering, While conquering the past He got up from the barstool headed for that door His footsteps uneasy as he shuffled across the floor I’d seen him almost stumble but never seen him fall And the glass is always empty when he comes back down the hall REPEAT CHORUS Oh I’ve often wondered who first held the glass That helped him forget a painful past And how it came about that many a man Found a cure for his misery from the glass in his hand REPEAT CHORUS
