Jerry Lee Lewis - Bottles And Barstools lyrics

rate me

Goodbye was the very easy word for you to say

But then you never cared the way I do

Your love was all that kept me going now that it's gone

Where can I turn but to the only friends I ever knew

Going to back to bottles and barstools these are the favorite tools

Of any lonely fool who needs to forget

They tell me that friends in need are truly friends in deed

And bottles and barstools have never failed me yet

[ piano ]

Well our love can be summed up in 25 words or less

Just another flame that never made a fire

And shoulders to cry on are an easy thing to find

Just look for any set of lights that spell out b-a-r

I'm going to back to bottles and ol' barstools these are the favorite tools

For any lonely fool who needs to forget

Well they tell me that friends in need are truly friends in deed

And bottles and barstools have never failed me yet

Yes bottles and barstools ain't failed ol' Jerry Lee yet ah set me up one more
