Barstool Lyrics

(Intro Music) 1,2,3,4,5,6 (More Intro Music) Old Man on a Bar Stool Watching tv He got up and came over to sit closer to me He said you look familiar To someone I knew But when we were your age we were older than you Jimmy was 20 And I 17 To us there was nothing but girls and machines Jimmy got married And i went to war I still don't know what we were doing it for And if you'll buy me a drink A turkey all nice Then i could give you some advice You just stay in the bar for as long as you can Cos' as long as your drinking then you've got the world in your hand There's no shame in hanging the world by a string You know there's no harm in not thinking a thing Trying to find a place for yourself in this world is like trying to make a wife of an American girl And if you'll trade me a drink for a story or two then you'll know what you need to do You just stay in the Bar For as long as you can No love is for sissy's it's wisky that make you a man Yeah (Musical Interlude) Now the old man got up Stumbled out in the street Been drinking all day left his Bar tab with me I didn't have the money To cover his bill Oh i found me a man looked like me younger still 'n' I said Buy me a drink And I'll tell you a tale About the old man who taught me so what Who said Stay in the Bar For as long as you can Well i know your a friend I can tell by the shades in your hand You just Stay in the Bar For as long as you dare As long as you tipping then you've got a good friend somewhere (Outro Music)
