Micky's Bar

Same old scene
Same old faces
Drop in for drinks
At Micky's bar

And that neon sign
Is just like a magnet
For all the hopeful
And lonely hearts, yeah

Bobby had a dream
Playin' for the Yankees
But two bad knees
And he's a junkyard car

Sheri's serving drinks
The '95 prom queen
Yeah, she says looks
Will only get you so far, yeah

Lost in the haze
Off in the corner
There sits Jane
In a new used dress
She orders up a sky dry martini
And why she's alone is anyone's guess

Oh my, make it a double
Sweet Jane's shootin' me a smile
Oh my, my heart's in trouble
Sweet Jane wants to stay awhile

Jane takes a sip
Pulls a little closer
'Til there ain't a lot of space between
And her sweet perfume
Cuts through the ashtrays
And those deep blue eyes
Have me lost at sea

Oh my, make it a double
Sweet Jane's shootin' me a smile
Oh my, my heart's in trouble
Sweet Jane wants to stay awhile

Oh, yeah
Oh, sweet Jane
My heart's in trouble
Sweet Jane

Her smile lights the dark
As she pulls out a picture
Her pride and joy
A little boy named Jude

Tough way to start when you're tryin' to just be 16
But she wouldn't trade
That boy for the moon, yeah

Oh my, make it a double
'Cause sweet Jane wants to stay awhile
Oh my, my heart's in trouble
'Cause sweet Jane wants to stay awhile

Same old scene
Same ol' faces
Last call for drinks
It's closing time
Micky's wiping down
Sheri makes the coffee
For all the cold and lonely hearts
