Barfly
The band only plays hurtin' songs
I've seen too many folks come and go
They all say this is the place to be
But they don't know my story
I'm gettin' tired of this barroom scene
Heard every line saw every scheme
No one's waitin' for me at home
Love put a hitch in my get along
I'm a barfly
A fixture mounted neath a neon sign
Life has a way of passing me by
It's the same old thing night after night
Oh I'm just another empty soul
Being broken really took a toll
I fell apart when she hit the road
And I'll admit I can't deny
I'm a barfly
Some say I'm wasting my life
Man I know it ain't dignified
I should get up and settle down
Love put a hitch in my get along
I'm a barfly
A fixture mounted neath a neon sign
Life has a way of passing me by
It's the same old thing night after night
Oh I'm just another empty soul
Being broken really took a toll
I fell apart when she hit the road
And I'll admit I can't deny
I'm a BARFLY
She let go like an Indy race
Now I'm stuck in this place
I'm a barfly
A fixture mounted neath a neon sign
Life has a way of passing me by
It's the same old thing night after night
Oh I'm just another empty soul
Being broken really took a toll
I fell apart when she hit the road
And I'll admit I can't deny
I'm a barfly
Yeah I'm a barfly
Your friendly neighborhood barfly
I've seen too many folks come and go
They all say this is the place to be
But they don't know my story
I'm gettin' tired of this barroom scene
Heard every line saw every scheme
No one's waitin' for me at home
Love put a hitch in my get along
I'm a barfly
A fixture mounted neath a neon sign
Life has a way of passing me by
It's the same old thing night after night
Oh I'm just another empty soul
Being broken really took a toll
I fell apart when she hit the road
And I'll admit I can't deny
I'm a barfly
Some say I'm wasting my life
Man I know it ain't dignified
I should get up and settle down
Love put a hitch in my get along
I'm a barfly
A fixture mounted neath a neon sign
Life has a way of passing me by
It's the same old thing night after night
Oh I'm just another empty soul
Being broken really took a toll
I fell apart when she hit the road
And I'll admit I can't deny
I'm a BARFLY
She let go like an Indy race
Now I'm stuck in this place
I'm a barfly
A fixture mounted neath a neon sign
Life has a way of passing me by
It's the same old thing night after night
Oh I'm just another empty soul
Being broken really took a toll
I fell apart when she hit the road
And I'll admit I can't deny
I'm a barfly
Yeah I'm a barfly
Your friendly neighborhood barfly
