Artist/Band: George Jones
Lyrics for Song: Bartender's Blues (v2)
Lyrics for Album: 40 Years of Duets [Time/Life Sony] [2007]



(James Taylor)

George Jones & Trisha Yearwood



T: I'm just a bartender and I don't like my work

But I don't mind the money at all

I see lots of sad faces and lots of bad cases

Of folks with their backs to the wall.



B: But I need four walls around me to hold my life

To keep me from going astray

And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight

To keep me from slipping away.



G: I can light up your smokes, I can laugh at your jokes

I can watch you fall down on your knees

I can close down this bar, I can gas up my old car

I can pack up and mail in the key.



B: But I need four walls around me to hold my life

To keep me from going astray

And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight

To keep me from slipping away.



T: Now the smoke fills the air in this honky-tonk bar

And I'm thinking 'bout where I'd rather be

G: But I burned all my bridges and I sank all ships now

I'm stranded at the edge of the sea.



B: But I need four walls around me to hold my life

To keep me from going astray

And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight

To keep me from slipping away...
