Set 'em Up, Joe歌词

作词 : Chris Jones
作曲 : Chris Jones
Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again
I ain't leavin' here until I'm all the way around the bend
Ever since she's gone this single malt seems to be my only friend
Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again

She did not leave a note and she did not call
What she did leave was me, here with my back against the wall
Everything looks better through this fog of alcohol
I can see to the bottom of this glass, man, and that's all

Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again
I ain't leavin' here until I'm all the way around the bend
Ever since she's gone this single malt seems to be my only friend
Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again

You can't run from trouble, that's what they say
And there ain't no use in tryin' to hide in a fifth of that old Islay
I get up every morning, get down on my knees and pray
For any old thing to help me keep this pain a step or two away

They say to me "Chris, you don't need this low-down, smoky bar
Get on with the healing and don't you worry 'bout the scars"
But it ain't no trick and it ain't no Sony, I'm taikin' child-support and alimony
And I do believe I will have myself another jar

Now, it's a cold wind, people don't you know
Especially if you're not quite sure which way that sucker's going to blow
But whichever way it comes will be the way this poor boy's got to go
And that's a hard row to how, people, isn't that so

Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again
I ain't leavin' here until I'm all the way around the bend
Ever since she's gone this single malt seems to be my only friend
Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again

Set'em up Joe, I'll have the same again ...
