This Bar Don't Work Anymore
That smoke's supposed to cover you up
And cloud my mind
This drink should be gettin' me drunk
Mmm, and gettin' me by
It should be easy to do what I came here for
But the second you walk through the door
This bar don't work anymore
You're givin' it a hell of a job to do
The way he's spinnin' you 'round on the floor
Brings back the midnight missin' you
I was just drinkin' through
Baby, it's drivin' me crazy
Even the whiskey can't ignore
That I'm right back where I was before
This bar don't work anymore
♪
This crowd's supposed to drown you out
All night long
Some pretty girls supposed to turn things around
Mmm, and maybe turn me on
I swore this neon would burn you out for sure
Baby, tell me what I'm paying 'em for?
This bar don't work anymore
You're givin' it a hell of a job to do
The way he's spinnin' you 'round on the floor
Brings back the midnight missin' you
I was just drinkin' through
Baby, it's drivin' me crazy
Even the whiskey can't ignore
Yeah, I'm right back where I was before
This bar don't work anymore
♪
They might as well close it down, shut it down
Go 'head and board up the windows and lock the doors
'Cause this bar don't work anymore
You're givin' it a hell of a job to do
The way he's spinnin' you 'round on the floor
Brings back the midnight missin' you
I was just drinkin' through
Baby, it's drivin' me crazy
Even the whiskey can't ignore
Still hung up on when I was yours
