Marty Thompson - Bartender

Come on in out of the cold
One more hand before we fold
What is it in your hand that you hold
I don't know, but it's only one day old
Take a seat, pull up a chair
Simple souls for us to share
Do you think this is a nightmare
I don't know, but now peace is everywhere
One more card laid down tonight
An ace of spades and a barroom light
It's two AM and we'll say good night
Why don't you ask that Bartender for a light
To melt off the snow
Hang your coat and dry your hat
Over there where Old John once sat
Did you know he was a diplomat
I don't know, but Jim he is an aristocrat
One more card laid down tonight
An ace of spades and a barroom light
It's two AM and we'll say good night
Why don't you ask that Bartender for a light
To melt off the snow
Melt off the snow
Scotch and water please, to go
It won't be long before we fold
It's a full house thrown, and it's time to show
I don't know, but sunrise came and I'm going home
One more card laid down tonight
An ace of spades and a barroom light
It's two AM and we'll say good night
One more card laid down tonight
An ace of spades and a barroom light
It's two AM and we'll say good night - good night
I don't know
Why don't you ask that Bartender for a light
To melt off the snow
Melt off the snow
Melt off the snow
