This Bar Donât Work Anymore Lyrics [Verse 1]
That smoke's supposed to cover you up
And cloud my mind
This drink should be gettin' me drunk
Mm-mm, and gettin' me by
It should be easy to do what I came here for
But the second you walk through the door
[Chorus]
This bar don't work anymore
You're givin' it a hell of a job to do
The way he's spinnin' you 'round on the floor
Brings back the midnight missin' you
I was just drinkin' through, baby
It's drivin' me crazy
Even the whiskey can't ignore
That I'm right back where I was before
This bar don't work anymore
[Verse 2]
This crowd's supposed to drown you out
All night long
Some pretty girls supposed to turn things around
Mm-mm, and maybe turn me on
I swore this neon would burn you out for sure
Baby, tell me what I'm paying 'em for?
[Chorus]
This bar don't work anymore
You're givin' it a hell of a job to do
The way he's spinnin' you 'round on the floor
Brings back the midnight missin' you
I was just drinkin' through, baby
It's drivin' me crazy
Even the whiskey can't ignore
Yeah, I'm right back where I was before
This bar don't work anymore
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
They might as well close it down, shut it down
Go 'head and board up the windows and lock the doors
[Chorus]
'Cause this bar don't work anymore
You're givin' it a hell of a job to do
The way he's spinnin' you 'round on the floor
Brings back the midnight missin' you
I was just drinkin' through, baby
It's drivin' me crazy
Even the whiskey can't ignore
Still hung up on when I was yours
This bar don't work anymore
