lyrics

Hit me again with another round of gin, bartender can I get a light?
The matchbook I kept in my pocket left with the girl on my right
And the girl to my left wants to drink for free but I’ve got all the debt that I need
Because of one girl’s suspicion and college tuition for two girls that I never see

So if you’re looking for someone to carry you home
Or to play some bar room shrink
You’re a real beauty and while you mean nothing to me
I only came here to drink

Another shot quick, if my walls could forget, I’d do my drinking at home
If I ask for your number, then would you leave me alone?
Then she pulls on my arm and she asks me to dance
Oh why don’t you buzz off and die?
I could pretend but what then? I know this dance comes with a price.

So if you’re looking for someone to carry you home
Or to play some bar room shrink
Thanks for the attention but I’m sure that I mentioned
I only came here to drink

If you’re looking for someone to carry you home
Or to play some bar room shrink
Thanks for the attention but I’m sure that I mentioned
I only came here to drink
