The Bartender'S Song - Lyrics - Mighty Mighty Bosstones

Title: The Bartender'S Song
Artist: Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Composer(s): Dicky Barrett

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
Red Sox, they're getting roasted, that's for sure

Thank you, sir, can I've another?
We've really grown to like each other
I like this beer and your friendly face
I've really grown to like this place
No, no, no, this can't be the case

Thank you, sir, can I have another?
We've really grown to like each other
I like this beer and your friendly face
I've really grown to like this place
No, no, no, this can't be the case

What's this all about?
After a couple, they usually throw me out
Maybe it's an illusion and not a bar
I'm gonna keep going, I'm going good so far

What's that drink that he has there?
No, I'll just have another beer
It's good to have a friend like you
I'm glad to see you like me, too

No, no, no, this can't be true
I've never been here before
After a couple, they kick my ass out the door
Maybe it's an illusion and not a bar
I'm gonna keep going, I'm going good so far

"Hey, I'll tell ya, I'm pissed off
Hey, ya want another drink?
Hey, buddy, hey, alright
You guys are the best friends I've ever had
And thats not the alcohol talking"

Thank you, sir, can I have another?
We've really grown to like each other
I like this beer and your friendly face
I've really grown to like this place

Thank you, sir, can I have another?
We've really grown to like each other
I like this beer and your friendly face
I've really grown to like this place

Thank you, sir, can I have another?
We've really grown to like each other
I like this beer and your friendly face
I've really grown to like this place
No, no, no, this can't be the case

The Torch Singer - Lyrics - Diamonds In The Rough - John Prine

Title: The Torch Singer
Album: Diamonds In The Rough
Artist: John Prine
Composer(s): John Prine

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
The night club was burning
From the torch singer's song
And the sweat was floodin' her eyes
The catwalk squeaked 'neath the bartender's feet
And the smoke was too heavy to rise

She sang of the love that left her
And of the woman that she'll never be
Made me feel like the buck and a quarter
That I paid 'em to listen and see
I paid 'em to listen and see

I was born down in Kansas
'Neath the October sky
Work the day shift from seven to three
And the only relief that I receive
Is nearer my God to Thee

She constantly throws me off timing
Leaves me standing both naked and bare
Makes me feel like the Sunday funnies
After every thing's gone off the air
Every thing's gone off the air

Picked through the ashes
Of the torch singer's song
And I ordered my money around
For whiskey and pain both taste the same
During the time they go down

She sang of the love that left her
And of the woman that she'll never be
Made me feel like the buck and a quarter
That I paid 'em to listen and see
I paid 'em to listen and see

Man With A Memory - Lyrics - Man with a Memory - Joe Nichols

Title: Man With A Memory
Album: Man with a Memory
Artist: Joe Nichols
Composer(s): Charlie Black, Rory Michael Bourke

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
Ol' Johnny's got a heart of gold
Ask anyone around here
But some nights his eyes are far away
And filled with tears
Sweet Mary Lou's just as good as they come
With a weakness for all the wrong men
From the look on her face tonight, she's been wrong again
Bartender's thinkin' to himself as he rubs his towel around a glass

Now there's a man with a memory
There's a woman with a past
Lost souls on life's highway
Forever lookin' back
When you're livin' for the love
And the love doesn't last
You get a man with a memory
A woman with a past

Bartender turns the TV down
Cranks that ol' jukebox up
Carefully selects which buttons to push
For what each song does
C-23 after J-19, it's a tonic for a broken heart
A little Stardust in the mix, it's a fine, fine art
Dim the lights a notch or two
The next round is on the house

For the man with a memory
And the woman with a past
Lost souls on life's highway
Forever lookin' back
When you're livin' for the love
And the love doesn't last
You get a man with a memory
A woman with a past

Oh, we've all got somethin'
We've got to get around
Now and then you get the chance
To help the lost get found

Stackin' chairs and sweepin' up
He can't help a little smile

Thinkin' 'bout the man with a memory
And the woman with a past
Lost souls on life's highway
Forever lookin' back
When you're livin' for the love
And the love doesn't last
You get a man with a memory
A woman with a past

You get a man with a memory
A woman with a past

Clementine - Lyrics - Elliott Smith - Elliott Smith

Title: Clementine
Album: Elliott Smith
Artist: Elliott Smith
Composer(s): Elliott Smith

Lyric:
They're waking you up to close the bar
The street's wet you can tell by the sound of the cars
The bartender's singing clementine
While he's turning around the open sign

Dreadful sorry clementine, though you're still her man
It seems a long time gone
Maybe the whole thing's wrong
What if she thinks so but just didn't say so?

You drank yourself into slo-mo
Made an angel in the snow
Anything to pass the time
And keep that song out of your mind

Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling clementine
Dreadful sorry clementine
Dreadful sorry clementine
