[Verse 1]
brew the Bcoffee in a bucket, B7double straight man and banEjo
if you don't got the Bsnake oil, buster, Eyou don't got a F#7show
who puts the Bdoh-re-me in our pockets keeps the party going Eon?
it's the man who sells the Bpotions, i'm just F#7one who plays the Bsongs
now they F#generally buys the F#7bigger size, they Busually rub it in
i Edrank it once, it Btasted, like Egrease and paraffin F#7
it's Bmostly alcohol, okay you can't deny it's Estrong
we was going through the Bmotions, ‘til the F#doctor came aBlong
[Chorus]
Bthere stands the Ebmbottle, Eladies and Bgentlemen
Eall these Bbottles, Edon't have to tell F#7you, friends
Bthese days miracles, don't come Ebmfalling from the Esky
raise your glasses to the Bdoctor, to a B7stand F#7up gBuy
[Verse 2]
when the Bmonkeyshine is flying and he's B7promising the Ecure
he says the french for your Blovesick blues, Ela maladie d'amF#7our
he gets the Bchumps all laughing but he gets a few to Ebuy
here's to beefsteak when you're Bhungry, and F#7whiskey when you're Bdry
now the F#band'll blow their F#7moolah,like Bsailors gone aB7shore
now Ewe're going to west Bhelena, to gEamble, drink and F#7whore
let's Byou and me, all make whoopee, B7here's mud in your Eeye
here's to all the gals you Bever want, and F#heaven when you Bdie
[Chorus]
Bthere stands the Ebmbottle, Eladies and Bgentlemen
Eall these Bbottles, Edon't have to tell F#7you, friends
Bthese days miracles, don't come Ebmfalling from the Esky
raise your glasses to the Bdoctor, to a B7stand F#7up gBuy
[Verse 3]
there's a Bbig cheese with a cigar, B7been sizing up the Eshow
he wants to get the Bdoctor, pitching Eon the F#7radio
i will Bmake a switch to guitar, but the B7rules all still Eapply
they want to trust someBbody, yeah, they F#7want a stand up Bguy
[Chorus]
Bthere stands the Ebmbottle, Eladies and Bgentlemen
Eall these Bbottles, Edon't have to tell F#7you, friends
Bthese days miracles, don't come Ebmfalling from the Esky
raise your glasses to the Bdoctor, to a B7stand F#7up gBuy
to a B7stand F#7up gBuy
