It's warm beer and cold women, no I just don't fit in Every joint I stumbled into tonight, that's just how its been All these double-knit strangers with gin and vermouth And recycled stories, in the naugahyde booths And the platinum blondes and tobacco brunettes I'll just be drinking to forget you, I light another cigarette And the band's playing something by Tammy Wynette And the drinks are on me tonight
All my conversations now, I'll just be talking about you, baby I'm boring some sailor as I try to get through I just want him to listen now I say that's all you have to do He said I'm better off without you, until I showed him my tattoo And now the moon's rising, ain't no time to lose Time to get down to drinking, tell the band to play the blues And the drinks are on me I'll buy another round At the last ditch attempt saloon
Warm beer and cold women, no I just don't fit in Every joint I stumble into tonight, that's just how it's been All these double-knit strangers with gin and vermouth Receding hairlines, in the naugahyde booths And the platinum blondes and tobacco brunettes I'll just be drinking to forget you, baby, I light a menthol cigarette And the band's playing something by Johnnie Barnette At the last ditch attempt saloon
