lyrics

I’m singing this song ‘cuz it’s time to go home
And the end of the night has come
Bar’s closing up and you’ve drank your last cup
But one last shot wouldn’t do you no harm
Well the waitress is counting her tips
You’re looking at her rosy red lips
you wished you’d asked her for a dance
But you know you’ve missed your last chance

Strike a match for the morning
Light a smoke for the dawn
And you know you should really go home
Band’s packing up
And they’ve played their last song
Now you’re sitting there all alone
While the waitress is mopping the floor
Your weary eyes stray to the door
All you’re hoping for is a smile or a glance
But you know you’ve blown your last chance

Well I’m singing this song ‘cuz it’s time to go home
And the end of the night has come
Bar’s closing up and you’ve drank your last cup
One more wouldn’t do you no harm
As the waitress looks better
Man, you’re looking worse
Gotta get a cab home, might as well be a hearse
You stagger as you stand up in an alcoholic trance
And you know you never really had a chance
Yeah you know you never really had a chance
