Happy hour was a big letdown
It's hard to find good help in this town
It's almost midnight and I still miss her
I need a better bartender
Time ain't workin' 'cause that's too slow
Can't afford someone new when your heart's flat broke
Only one thing I need to finally forget her
Hah, and that's a better bartender
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, one with a heavier hand
Someone that keeps 'em comin' 'cause they understand
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, that someone's hurtin' here
I need more than just this ice to disappear
I just need someone who knows that she'll run through my mind
And try not to let her, like a better bartender
Neon's got that perfect good time glow
The band's playin' every party song they know, well
The stage is set for a big time bender
I just need a better bartender
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, one with a heavier hand
Someone that keeps 'em comin' 'cause they understand
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, that someone's hurtin' here
I need more than just this ice to disappear
I just need someone who knows that she'll run through my mind
And try not to let her, like a better bartender
Need someone who's a lot like me
And seen rock bottom from the driver's seat
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, one with a heavier hand
Someone that keeps 'em comin' 'cause they understand
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, that someone's hurtin' here
I need more than just this ice to disappear
When the one thing you came to forget
Is the only thing that you still remember
You need a better bartender
Yeah, need a better bartender
