Jesse Malin - Bar Life lyrics

Once upon a time I had some money and I went across the ocean I thought of going back to school for maximum promotion I fell into a spell and then I took off like a man without an answer Now I wanna be back home but I'm married to a dancer You know I went to see the gypsy but nobody can fix me I came here for the water but I was misinformed Bar life, so many of us going down Thinking about bar life, anywhere in any town I introduced myself and told a couple stupid jokes to break the tension They say the best of comedians often battle with depression It's gonna take some time but pretty soon you know I'm gonna do my best work Then I'm gonna walk away and tell you that it don't hurt Bar life, so many of us going down Thinking about bar life, if only you could hear me now If you want it you can get it If you want it for a holiday you can get away There's a man in the office and he's looking away I had a dream Bar life, man whatever gets you through Thinking about bar life, singing those cowboy tunes Bar life, so many of us going down Thinking about bar life, anywhere in any town Once upon a time I had some money and I went across the ocean
