Hallelujah Bar

Driving all night my eyes getting heavy
Too many hours pushing that Chevy
Thinking about stopping somewhere
Won't be long
What could go wrong?

A neon sign said not too far
For the Hallelujah bar
Where good folks come to meet
And get along
What could go wrong?

Well I parked outside and went right in
The place was packed like sardine tins
Until a girl at the bar said 'hey you staying long?'
What could go wrong?

I swear on the holy ghost
You only live once let's make the most
She grabbed my hat and said 'Come on, baby let's go'
Let's rock, baby let's roll
Let's roll, baby let's go
There's no last call or people
Talkin' through ya
Let's rock, baby let's roll
Let's roll, baby let's go
Raise a glass now
Can I get a hallelujah?

Now the bartender looking like James Dean
Says the drinks are free and the tables clean
So we me and the girl in my hat request a song
What could go wrong?
Don't get me wrong I'm an average guy
I asked the band 'you know Jambalaya'
And Hank walks in with his guitar on
What could go wrong?

I swear on the holy ghost
You only live once let's make the most
She grabbed my hat and said come on baby let's go
Let's rock, baby let's roll
Let's roll, baby let's go
There's no last call or people
Talkin' through ya
Let's rock, baby let's roll
Let's roll, baby let's go
Raise a glass now
Can I get a hallelujah?

Now when I woke up outside of town
Without so much a soul around
But an old man and horse he's sitting on
What could go wrong?

I said 'Hey where's the Hallelujah Bar'
He said 'son how long you been in that car?'
I said never mind, I guess I'll move along
What could go wrong?

Now in my mind I won't forget
But the only thing I still regret
That girl has my hat, I think it's gone
What could go wrong?

I swear on the holy ghost
You only live once let's make the most
She grabbed my hat and said come on baby let's go
Let's rock, baby let's roll
Let's roll, baby let's go
Raise a glass now
Can I get a hallelujah?
Raise a glass now
Can I get a hallelujah?
