Buy It In Bottles Lyrics

Baby come on, come on down,
And love please don't make a sound,
And let nature strike a chord,
'Cause nature is the law, that I depend.

When you learn to cut it loose,
All the things that been drowning you,
Let 'em slide from your hands,
The foolish demands, from the people round you.

I know you can buy it in bottles and,
I know you may find it with prayer,
I know it all so very well.

Until I get there then,
I'll be looking for the sins,
You can meet me where I am,
And here I stand,
And here I stay.

I know you can buy it in bottles and,
I know you may find it with pills,
I know it all so very well.

Stuck in this life where nothing changes,
I'm born of man, I'm born of angels.

I know you can buy it in bottles and,
I know you may find it with prayer,
I know it all so very well.

I know you can buy it in bottles and,
I know you may find it with pills,
I know it all so very well.

Until I get there then,
Until I get there then,
Until I get there then,
Until I get there then.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Definitely referring to happiness in the bottles/drugs. Learning that you can find happiness without these but "until I get there then".....
