Does anyone know the song Vince Gill sang on Imus?

Question

I dont remember when maybe within the last few months.

Answer 1

I think the song you are looking for is called "Real Mean Bottle".It was Vince's tribute to Country Singer Merle Haggard.

It was sung by Bob Seger and Kid Rock on Imus.

Real Mean Bottle

No man ever sounded so lonesome
No man ever made you feel such pain
Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle
That made you sing that way

The stories you told about prison
About a young man gone astray
Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle
That made you write the songs that way


Chorus:
A real mean bottle
Poured straight from the Devil
It's a miracle you're standin' here today
A real mean bottle
Made you such a rebel
It must have been a real mean bottle
Made you sing that way

You spent most all your life with strangers
With a ramblin' fever in your veins
Hag, it must have been a real mean bottle
That made you play the blues that way

Chorus

A real mean bottle
Poured straight from the Devil
It must have been a real mean bottle
Made you sing that way
