Jesse Malin - Bar Life lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Once upon a time I had some money and a winner cross the ocean

I thought of going back to school for maximum promotion

I fell into a spell and then I took off like man without an answer

Now I wanna be back home, but I'm married to a dancer

You know I went to see the gypsy, don't nobody can fix me

I came here for the water, all I was missing found

(Chorus)

Bar life, so many of us going down

Thinkin' bout bar life

Anywhere in any town

(Verse 2)

I introduced myself and told a couple stupid jokes to break the tension

They say the best of comedians often battle with depression

It's gonna take some time but pretty soon you know I'm gonna do my best work

And then I'm gonna walk away and tell you that I don't know

(Chorus)
