Cowboy Bob and the Crack of Dawn


The Bar Owner Blues




Verse:

 

Oh, it's one in the morning as I look down the bar.
Nothing but the usual hardcore drunks are

slumped over their latest last beer,

crying out their troubles with yet-another tear.

 

Pre-chorus:

 

I must have a doctorate in 'bull-s**t 101'.

They're having a good time, but for me it's no fun.

 

Verse:

 

There's Chip over there lamenting his lost chick.

There's Duke over here chug-a-lugging so damn quick,

if I had a garden hose linked straight to his face,

it still wouldn't be able to keep up with his drinking pace

 

Repeat pre-chorus:

 

Chorus:

 

Whoa is me, I've got The Bar Owner Blues.

All my regular patrons who don't have a clue.

Yes, The Bar Owner Blues have got me down.

Oh, I'm the queen of hearing oral whining, yes I wear the crown

 

Verse:

 

At last, it's 2 am and I can finally lock the doors,

and get the place ready for tomorrow by mopping the floors.

Oh joy, another day, more pretending that I give a s**t.

I tell ya, I might sample the product, cause I've had it!

 

Repeat pre-chorus:

 

Repeat chorus:

 

End

Actually, it kind of reminds me of Billy HJoels' "The Piano Man..."

Yeah, it does some--I RIPPED OFF BILLY JOEL!
This is class Mike. Right up my street this. I can imagine Moe singing this blues style while leaning on his mop. Your favourite of mines now. Thanks for sharing. :)

I write for fun; I write comedy pieces and some dramatic stuff. I have no formal writing education, and I have a fear of being told I suck, and maybe I should give up on writing, and get a job makin.. more..
