The Replacements - Here Comes A Regular lyrics

rate me

Well, a person can work up a mean mean thirst

After a hard day of nothin' much at all

Summer's past, it's too late to cut the grass

There ain't much to rake anyway in the fall

Sometimes I just ain't in the mood

To take my place in back with the loudmouths

You're like a picture on a fridge that's never stocked with food,

I used to live at home, now I stay at the house

And everybody wants to be special here

They call your name out loud and clear

Here comes a regular, call out your name

Here comes a regular, Am I the only one here today

Well a drinking buddy that's bound to another town

Once the police made you go away

And even if you're in the arms of someone's baby now

I drink a great big whiskey to you anyway

And everybody wants to be someone's here

Someone's gonna show up never fear

Here comes a regular, call out your name

Here comes a regular, Am I the only one who feels ashamed

And even alongside old sad eyes, who says

"Opportunity knocks once then the door slams shut"

All I know is that I'm sick of everything that my money can buy

A fool who wastes his life god rests his guts

First the lights, and the collar goes up,and the wind begins to blow

You turn our back on a pay-you-back last call

First the plants, the leaves, the grass and here comes the snow

There ain't much to rake here anyway in the fall
