What you see when you sing into a microphone in a bar.

lyrics

Bar time says it’s time to close / The singer, he sings his last song / Pack up the guitars, settle up with the bar / Tumble into the night and he’s gone, tumble into the night and he’s gone / The rain taps the rhythm outside / The streets seem so empty tonight / The guy in the corner eyes the gal at the bar / She’d rather be loved than be right / Don’t let her be lonely tonight / This old gal I know waitin’ tables / She says one day that she’s getting out / She’ll send for the kids, pack it up, move away / She’s chased by the fear of her doubts / Run ragged by the fear of her doubts / I’m guessing some people don’t know and I’m thinking some people don’t care / I looked for your face in the crowd here tonight / It wasn’t to be found anywhere / I just didn’t see it anywhere / So the rhymes and the reasons are plenty / Like pennies from heaven raining down / Through the smoky old lights in a broken down bar / The visions of grandeur abound, oh, they dance in the night all around / So bar time says it’s time to close / The singer, he sings his last song / Pack up the guitars, settle up with the bar / Tumble into the night and he’s gone / Tumble into the night and he’s gone / Turn his back to the wind and he’s gone.
