Lyrics:
The last time I saw Jesus
I was drinking bloody mary's in the South
In a barroom in New Orleans
Rinsin' out the bad taste in my mouth
She wore
Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man.
They say barroom girls are pretty are they prettier than me
It's so lonely on my side of the sea
I'm writing my third letter you've never written me
barroom's alright
Maggie holds her mystery deep inside her heart
She'll keep the secret memories and dance in the dark
You can tell her your longings
around barrooms, Friday night dances
Singin' them old country songs
Half the time endin' up someplace I don't belong
I said, Jailor, hey, what
Joe's barroom on the corner beyond the square
Everybody drinkin' good liquor the regular crowd was there
So I strolled out on the sidewalk began to look
on your handlebars
We could've seen the stars
You wanna live a life of restlessness
Wander round singing the blues
You find solace in the bar-room girls
Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man.
I walked into a backwoods smoke-filled barroom
All the patron's eyes turned towards me
The bartender says son what's your pleasure
I'm lookin' for
laughed at him when he walked into the barroom
One of them got up and met him halfway 'cross the floor
When Tommy turned around they said, "hey look, old
life,
I miss the drugs and the fights.
I miss the hold me up drink in the dark.
I miss the comfort in delusion,
I miss that barroom in Houston,
where
clothes
She spoke like an angel, Gabriel's horn
The love that was between us once well I did destroy
Now I'm waiting for an angel in a barroom for
Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man.
Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man.
Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man.
Well Loretta she's my barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeves
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always
barroom's alright
Maggie holds her mystery deep inside her heart
She'll keep the secret memories and dance in the dark
You can tell her your longings she
and thanksgiving
a piece of my heart,,it really don't matter
I let my broken heart get the best of me,,this barroom stage gets the rest of me.
I take my time cus I
I met a gin-soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
She sees a bartender in a pool of blood
Cries out, "my God,
you'll know what to do to keep me by your side
Put your arms 'round me, baby, and change my mind
If the gay life of the barrooms beckons me at night
Put
Drinkin' was forbidden in my christian country home
I learned to play the flattop on them good ol' gospel songs
Then I heard about the barrooms
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
She sees a bartender in a pool of blood
Cries out, "my God,
a seen John Hardy getting away
You ought to seen John Hardy getting away
John Hardy stood in that old barroom
So drunk that he could not see
And a man
