Boys In Bars Lyrics - Singles - Bacon Brothers

Now you could hear that jukebox pound 

But you could barely see inside 

Now rumor had it years ago 

Is where that girl had died 

Now why they caled it a cafe 

Well I never understood 

Cause there aint no tables on the street 

The coffee tastes like mud 

But every night at five o'clock 

They'd start to come around 

We'd begin to set em up 

And they would knock em down 

Sometime after midnight 

With a pocket full of green 

We'd lock the doors and step outside 

And our days would begin 

Cause we were boys in bars 

Runnin over the shootin stars 

Cruisin Broadway without cars 

We were gonna take that town 

Nothin there would knock us down 

That old apple would be ours 

George was a lawyer 

In an old Brooks Brothers suit 

And Glen worked for homicide 

He had a pistol in his boot 

Franco was a sculptor 

Who looked something like an eagle 

Chas did a lot of things 

And none of them were legal 

Debbi was a waitress 

And she came all the way from Queens 

Sit around and wonder how 

She got into those jeans 

Nicky tended bar 

So he always drank for free 

Johnny was a lover 

And he taught everything to me 

And we were boys in bars 

Cool as ice cubes, Sharp as darts 

Runnin down all those lonely hearts 

All that liquid goes 

All those lives we sewed 

All those medals all those scars 

Last night I was thinkin back 

To those sweet old Disco days 

But you know the memories were cloudy 

Through that thick Marlboro haze 

Freezin outside 54's 

Just hopin he'd pick me 

Skiing down Columbus 

Just like Jean Claude Killey 

Back before the ticking clcok 

Made all of us it's slave 

And back before the search for love 

Could put you in your grave 

I'd never trade the days I lost 

For the years that I have found 

Sometimes late at night 

I can hear that jukebox pound 

And we were boys in bars 

Runnin over the shootin stars 

Cruisin Broadway without cars 

We were gonna take that town 

Nothin there would knock us down 

That old apple would be ours 

Boys in bars 

We were boys in bars 

Runnin over the shootin stars 

Boys in bars 

We were boys in bars 

Cruisin Broadway without cars 

Boys in bars 

We were boys in bars 

Cool as ice cubes sharp as darts 

Boys in bars 

We were boys in bars 

Runnin down all those lonely hearts
