[Verse 1]
Another night with a bitter end
And I've been drinking alone again
Just thinking 'bout some old friends and some used to be's
I ain't ever gonna change the sound
Up here living on the higher ground
Nobody ever comes around but I like it that way
[Pre-Chorus 1]
In my new reality
Where the truth is plain to see
[Chorus 1]
That I miss old winos and social drinkers
Good time friends and perfect strangers
Cheating husbands, lonely wives
I miss five-piece bands
And one-night stands
Oh what I'd give for last call and some smoke in my eyes
[Verse 2]
I still think about an empty glass
A stack of chairs and an open tab
And maybe a yellow cab if you're lucky
And making deals in the parking lot
Where you sell me what you got
And never a whole lot left after closing time
[Pre-Chorus 2]
One more round of the third degree
Where you been boy? Who'd you see?
[Chorus 2]
Just some old winos and social drinkers
Good time friends and perfect strangers
Cheating husbands, lonely wives
And a five-piece band
Getting out of hand
Oh what I'd give for last call and a little smoke in my eyes
In my eyes
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Lies the man I used to be
[Chorus 3]
Out with the old winos and social drinkers
Good time friends and perfect strangers
Cheating husbands, lonely wives
And I want one more song
Before the lights come on
Oh what I'd give for last call and a little smoke in my eyes
[Outro]
I miss old winos and social drinkers
Another night with a bitter end
And I've been drinking alone again
Just thinking 'bout some old friends and some used to be's
I ain't ever gonna change the sound
Up here living on the higher ground
Nobody ever comes around but I like it that way
[Pre-Chorus 1]
In my new reality
Where the truth is plain to see
[Chorus 1]
That I miss old winos and social drinkers
Good time friends and perfect strangers
Cheating husbands, lonely wives
I miss five-piece bands
And one-night stands
Oh what I'd give for last call and some smoke in my eyes
[Verse 2]
I still think about an empty glass
A stack of chairs and an open tab
And maybe a yellow cab if you're lucky
And making deals in the parking lot
Where you sell me what you got
And never a whole lot left after closing time
[Pre-Chorus 2]
One more round of the third degree
Where you been boy? Who'd you see?
[Chorus 2]
Just some old winos and social drinkers
Good time friends and perfect strangers
Cheating husbands, lonely wives
And a five-piece band
Getting out of hand
Oh what I'd give for last call and a little smoke in my eyes
In my eyes
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Lies the man I used to be
[Chorus 3]
Out with the old winos and social drinkers
Good time friends and perfect strangers
Cheating husbands, lonely wives
And I want one more song
Before the lights come on
Oh what I'd give for last call and a little smoke in my eyes
[Outro]
I miss old winos and social drinkers
