Lyrics
Even Bartenders Get The Blues
verse
People gather 'round the bar all night
Tell me their troubles, it's all right
I don't say nothin' but I got a story too
two cats greet me when I get home
landlord's on the telephone
rent's overdue
even bartenders get the blues
Chorus:
pour 'em a drink, listen with sympathy
same sad story, sure familiar to me
love on the rocks, tear filled eyes
I understand, that's no lie
shocking news,
Even bartenders get the blues.
Blues Musical Instrumental:
Verse:
pretty girl comes in the bar tonight
Long blonde hair and bedroom eyes
I pour her a drink, and listen to her sing the blues
story 'bout a man who cheats and lies
forgot to mention he's 6 foot five
he glares at me
and sits at the neighboring stool
chorus
