Roger Creager
I`ve never heard a more beautiful sound
Than a jukebox by the wall
And this room is full of pretty women
But I don`t feel like dancing at all
I`ve got a beer in my left hand
And Tequila in front of me
A couple of dollars in change
For the jukebox to set me free
And tonight I`m going to sit here
On this barstool
I`ll lock the world outside the swingin` door
I`ll toast everyone who`s ever had a heartache
I`ll buy myself a round
And drink one more
Oh don`t even try to talk about work this morning
There`s no way in the world I`ll be on time
Because I`m too busy slowing down my thinking
Until the thought of you
Can barely walk through my mind
I know these good old boys
Can see that I get home tonight
I`m not even sure that I could find the way
Because if home is really where the heart is
Tonight I`ll find another place to stay
So tonight I`m going to sit here
On this barstool
I`ll lock the world outside the swingin` door
I`ll toast everyone who`s ever had a heartache
I`ll buy myself a round
And drink one more
Oh don`t even try to talk about work this morning
There`s no way in the world I`ll be on time
Because I`m too busy slowing down my thinking
Until the thought of you
Can barely walk through my mind
