bar rooms & bar stools

bar rooms
& bar stools
just tryin', just flyin'
just cryin' out loud
not to be
the damn
fool i be

can't you see
close your eyes
don't forget the whys
and wherefores
the befores
the, the therefores

tryin' & cryin'
over a bar stool
'memberin' just bein a fool

bottles's & beers
facin my fears
holdin back
all tose tears
'memberin my a'rears
oh deaRS

Holidays
& gone aways
no waYS
to know
no ways
to let It shows

know ways to show
how i feel
no ways to heal
no waYs to know

'cept with bar rooms
& bar stools
old fools sittin' around
looKin' at a glass
lookin' for a piece of ass
hell, man that time will pass

with bar room
& bar stools
old fools
sitttin' around
wonderin'
what's that sound
where i am
where i'm found

just an old fool
playin' pool
sittin' around
a fool to be found

still hearin'
the sounds
still fearin'
what comes 'round
still knowin'
still showin'
still gowin'
with what goes 'round

old fools
bar rooms
& bar stools
old fools
learnin' then rules

just tryin'ta' be
sumpin' we ain't
hell we never been
no saint
we just be
who we are

old fools
mr. cools
sittin'
on a bar stool

but ain't it sad
we lost what we had
too bad

what's the cost
what's the lost
nickles & dimes
never did
cost me a dime
never did cost me
my rhyme

bar rooms
bar stools
old fools
waitin' on time

old fools
on bar stools

waitin'
on time
