Bartender Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now I´m just a bartender
And I don´t like my work
But I don´t mind the money at all
I see lots of sad faces
And lots of bad cases of
Folks with their backs to the wall
But I need four walls around me
To hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel
To hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
I can light up your smokes
I can laugh at your jokes
I can watch you fall down on your knees
I can close down this bar
I can gas up my old car
I can pack up and mail in my key
But I need four walls around me
To hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel
To hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
Now the smoke fills the air
In this honky-tonk bar
And I´m thinking ´bout
Where I´d rather be
But I burned all my bridges
I sank all my ships and
I´m stranded at the edge of the sea
But I need four walls around me
To hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel
To hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
