lyrics

There’s a honky-tonk outside of town
With a jukebox in the corner
And a man who comes in every night
With a pocketful of quarters
And he puts away a few beers
With Willie, Hank and Merle
And he talks to them as if they were
His best friends in the world

“That’s a good one,” he tells Willie
After “Yesterday’s Wine”
And when Hank comes on he tells him
Won’t you “Please make up your mind”
But no one bothers him at all
As he follows his bliss
And the sign outside says “Where else can
You find good friends like this”

Rosie’s at a corner table
She’s playing solitaire
When she used to dance at the Mermaid Lounge
There wasn’t an empty chair
Now none of her old lovers come by
To see her anymore
But she still flirts with all the men
Just like she did before

So shuffle the deck one more time
And play the cards you get
They say she’s over the hill
But Rosie doesn’t know it yet
And she don’t pay them any mind
As she follows her bliss
And the bartender says “Where else can
You find good friends like this”

Some people like gardening, working on cars or woodworking. Others enjoy knitting, collecting stamps or coins. That kind of thing. I like writing songs.
