That smoke's supposed to cover you up And cloud my mind This drink should be gettin' me drunk And getting me by It should be easy to do what I came here for But the second you walk through the door This bar don't work anymore You're giving it a hell of a job to do The way he's spinning you round on the floor Brings back the midnight missing you I was just drinking through, baby It's driving me crazy Even the whiskey can't ignore That I'm right back where I was before This bar don't work anymore This crowd's supposed to drown you out All night long Some pretty girl's supposed to turn things around And maybe turn me on I swore this neon would burn you out for sure Baby, tell me what I'm paying 'em for This bar don't work anymore You're giving it a hell of a job to do The way he's spinning you round on the floor Brings back the midnight missing you I was just drinking through, baby It's driving me crazy Even the whiskey can't ignore That I'm right back where I was before This bar don't work anymore They might as well close it down Shut it down go 'head and board up the windows and lock the doors 'Cause this bar don't work anymore You're giving it a hell of a job to do The way he's spinning you round on the floor Brings back the midnight missing you I was just drinking through, baby It's driving me crazy Even the whiskey can't ignore Still hung up on when I was yours This bar don't work anymore
