The Dive Bar In My Heart

Once in a while you still come around

Look me over and you look me down

It's just you and that lazy barback

And your favorite little clown

You're a long walk from Avenue A

You're a train ride outta your way

You slip in like smoke outta your coat

With a joke that doesn't play

That's all she wrote now I'm on my way

In the dive bar in my heart

Strange to see you on this side of town

Not your people or your kind of crowd

Just nobodies here drinking flat beer

Away from the battleground

There's no sleigh bells in winter time

There's no top shelf or decent wine

It's another slow jam same awful band

It's the last stop the end of line

You're on the list I'm easy to find

In the dive bar in my heart

In the dive bar in my heart

In the dive bar in my heart

Every dog has its day

Then don't I too get a bone

I'd follow you down to Hell in a boat

If that's where you're going

If we don't hang together baby

Then we just hang on our own

Now there's snow coming down on the steps

And the locals have already left

I'll be here late I'll close up and wait

With your perfume still on my neck

Now the whole world's awake and I've overslept

In the dive bar in my heart

In the dive bar in my heart

In the dive bar in my heart

In the dive bar in my heart

In the dive bar in my heart
