Horseshoe Lounge
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
Raising up my bottle I looked for a chance
As you set your glass down on the bar with a glance at me
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Shuffleboard and neon light
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Cigarettes and whiskey tonight
Ricky said, "She's out of your league, let her go."
As I watched you pick your partner on that old dance floor
I know it didn't work out the first time we tried
But I'd do anything to have you by my side again
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Peel the label off a Miller Lite
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
I sit here thinkin' 'bout you every night
Were you the one who faltered?
Was I the one who strayed?
Maybe God left us out of the plans he made
So here's to missed beginnings and things that never start
For these are the ghosts that run around in my heart
When I see that where I'm going isn't where I want to be
I get the urge to look you up see if you would come and meet me
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Hey buddy, have you got a light?
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
One more and I'll be all right
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Peel the label off a Miller Lite
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
I sit here thinkin' 'bout you every night
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
Raising up my bottle I looked for a chance
As you set your glass down on the bar with a glance at me
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Shuffleboard and neon light
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Cigarettes and whiskey tonight
Ricky said, "She's out of your league, let her go."
As I watched you pick your partner on that old dance floor
I know it didn't work out the first time we tried
But I'd do anything to have you by my side again
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Peel the label off a Miller Lite
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
I sit here thinkin' 'bout you every night
Were you the one who faltered?
Was I the one who strayed?
Maybe God left us out of the plans he made
So here's to missed beginnings and things that never start
For these are the ghosts that run around in my heart
When I see that where I'm going isn't where I want to be
I get the urge to look you up see if you would come and meet me
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Hey buddy, have you got a light?
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
One more and I'll be all right
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
Peel the label off a Miller Lite
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
I sit here thinkin' 'bout you every night
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
