Verse 1
Just look at her, she's so beautiful still,
Even paying other men attention now.
When she took this job at the Alamo Grill,
I thought that I'd be showing off the girl that I've got now.
Never thought about the consequences to my fate,
When she said, "I've got this new job, but it's working late."
Chorus
Hey, bartender, should I drink out loud
About the way we were, and the trouble we've had
Since you were my girl, before this barstool
Became the only place you'd see me, just another fool?
Verse 2
Just look at me, I'm a jealous mess,
Yesterday she wore some cut-off jeans, today that little dress.
That's okay with me, when we're out alone,
But now these drinkin' fools just stare at her the whole night long.
Never thought about the consequences of my pride,
You'd think that watchin' her just servin' drinks would be all right.
[REPEAT CHORUS]
Verse 3
Just look at her, She's a shining light,
She puts to shame all the neon in this barroom night.
I guess that talkin' to people is her thing,
I guess that mine is fightin' heartbreak with another drink.
Never thought about the consequences of my fear,
That she might be gettin' bored with me from working here.
Chorus
Hey, bartender, should I drink out loud
About the way we were, and the trouble we've had
Since you were my girl, before this barstool
Became the only place you'd see me, just another fool?
[REPEAT CHORUS]
