Warm Beer And Cold Women

It's warm beer and cold women,

no I just don't fit in

Every joint I stumbled into tonight,

that's just how its been

All these double-knit strangers

with gin and vermouth

And recycled stories in the naugahyde booths

And the platinum blondes and tobacco brunettes

I'll just be drinking to forget you,

I light another cigarette

And the band's playing something by Tammy Wynette

And the drinks are on me tonight

All my conversations now,

I'll just be talking about you, baby

I'm boring some sailor as I try to get through

I just want him to listen now I say that's all you have to do

He said 'I'm better off without you' until I showed him my tattoo

And now the moon's rising, ain't no time to lose

Time to get down to drinking,

tell the band to play the blues

And the drinks are on me,

I'll buy a couple rounds

At the last ditch attempt saloon

Warm beer and cold women,

no I just don't fit in

Every joint I stumble into tonight,

that's just how it's been

All these double-knit strangers with gin and vermouth

Receding hairlines in the naugahyde booths

And the platinum blondes and tobacco brunettes

I'll just be drinking to forget you, baby

I light a menthol cigarette

And the band's playing something by Johnnie Barnette

At the last ditch attempt saloon
