Gord Bamford - Raise The Bar lyrics

rate me

(Gord Bamford/Cyril Rawson/Byron Hill)

THE BAND WAS ROCKIN' NOT A SEAT IN THE ROOM

SOME GUY GOT UP AND I AND I MADE MY MOVE

CAN'T BELIEVE HE LEFT THAT PRETTY GIRL ALL ALONE

SO I SAT DOWN, SAID HOWDY MAM

AND I'M STILL RIGHT HERE WHERE I AM

AIN'T GOING NOWHERE EVEN THOUGH I'M DRY AS A BONE, SO

CHORUS: RAISE THE BAR BRING IT OVER HERE

FROM WHERE I'M SITTING CAN'T REACH MY BEER

CAUSE I'VE GOT CUTE GIRL WHISPERING IN MY EAR

I KNEW WHEN I FIRST SAW HER FACE

IF I GET UP I'M GONNA LOSE MY PLACE

RAISE THE BAR. BRING IT OVER HERE

RIP IT UP FROM THE FLOOR NAILS AND ALL

BUT DON'T SPILL A DROP OF THAT ALCOHOL

MOVE THE PARTY TO THIS SIDE OF THE ROOM

AND IF SOMEONE HAS A PROBLEM WITH THAT

THEY CAN COME ON OVER TO WHERE WE'RE AT

AS LONG AS THEY DRAG THEIR OWN BARSTOOL

REPEAT CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL

REPEAT CHORUS

YEAH YOU CAN RAISE THE BAR (RAISE THE BAR)

RAISE THE BAR (RAISE THE BAR)

RAISE THE BAR, BRING IT OVER HERE
