Barlight (Live at Gruene Hall)

Well, when I was young
My momma read me nursery rhymes beside my bed
And though they sounded mighty fine
They made no sense to me

And now that I am all grown up
It seems my nights have changed as such
So I went out and made me up
A nursery rhyme for me

It goes, bar light, bar bright
The first bar that I saw tonight
I wish I may, wish I might
Find someone to hold me tight

Hey, diddle, diddle, a man with a fiddle
And the girls sing along with the tunes
Just one more dance 'til you turn off the lights
And you can shut down this saloon

You know, I never understood
How a big ole girl can raise no kids in a shoe
And any old Jack goes jumping a candle
Needs to find something better to do

And a rub, a dub, dub, three men in a tub
Sure sounds kinda funny to me
So I made up a honky-tonk nursery rhyme
And it's the only one I'll sing

It goes, bar light, bar bright
The first bar that I saw tonight
I wish I may, wish I might
Find someone to hold me tight

Hey, diddle, diddle, a man with a fiddle
And the girls sing along with the tunes
Just one more dance 'til you turn off the lights
And you can shut down this saloon, oh, yeah

Oh, one more time, oh

I said, I never understood
How a big ole girl could raise no kids in a shoe
Any old Jack goes jumpin' a candle
Needs to find something better to do

And a rub, a dub, dub, three men in a tub
Sure sounds kinda funny to me
So I made up a honky-tonk nursery rhyme
And it's the only one I'll sing
Everybody now

It goes (bar light, bar bright, yeah)
The first bar that I saw tonight
I wish I may, wish I might
Find someone to hold me tight

Hey, diddle, diddle, a man with a fiddle
And the girls sing along with the tunes
Just one more dance 'til you turn off the lights
And you can shut down this saloon

I said, just one more dance 'til you turn off the lights
And you can shut down this saloon

(Thank you, Gruene Hall, we've had a wonderful time)
(You'll are awesome, men)
