Joe Hardy - Adios Lounge lyrics

[Verse 1: Bob Forrest] I know an old-timer Just a nickel-and-dimer At the bar down the Adios Lounge And for whiskey and smokes Recites poems and jokes But he's not just your average clown And he's entertaining nightly Down the Adios Lounge And he puts it politely But he does lay it down [Pre-Chorus: Bob Forrest] Now I lie here alone in my bed With these words running wild in my head He said [Chorus: Tom Waits] Don't let nobody go there for you Don't be satisfied with a second-hand life Don't let nobody stifle or bore you Handle your troubles or take on your strife Don't let nobody live your life for you Not your friends, not your kids, no not even your wife If you want to know where the rainbow ends It's you who's got to go there and find it my friend [Verse 2: Bob Forrest] So I'm going back down To the Adios Lounge Where there's no one to wait up for me I hope he's still around Oh, that crazy old scrounge To tell us how things ought to be He said [Chorus: Bob Forrest and Tom Waits] Don't let nobody go there for you Don't be satisfied with a second-hand life Don't let nobody stifle or bore you Handle your troubles or take on your strife Don't let nobody live your life for you Not your friends, not your kids, no not even your wife If you want to know where the rainbow ends It's you who've got to go there and find it my friend [Outro: Bob Forrest] So I buy him more drinks Just to hear what he thinks Oh, it's worth it to see him almost smile It's worth feeling free for a while At the bar down the Adios Lounge At the bar down the Adios Lounge At the bar down the Adios Lounge
