She left me high and dry then they lowered the bar on me
And ever since they did, I cant seem to leave
I don't care about the jukebox or the sports of the TV
But I just cant seem to get up since they lowered the bar on me
If her expectations had been as low as she left me.
Maybe I wouldnt be here mixing beer with agony
I thought things were looking up but I must have let her down.
Now I am livin in a honky tonk on the shady side of town
Ive seen the bottom of this bottle 100 times
And it always looks the same .
I'll have another and I swear to my own mother
I won't even remember your name
I guess it aint as bad as I make it out to be
There's what his name the bartender to keep me company.
The waitress sure is friendly she treats me like a king
Cos I can finally tip good since I pawned our wedding rings
