Where Heartache Hangs Around

The same old barkeep, same old stool
Same old song, I’m the same old fool
That keeps coming here
Thinking you’ll just disappear
If I’m gonna be down, I’m gonna be down here
Shoot some pool with the boys, loser buys the beer
I’m getting pretty good
I come here a little more than I should
Just when I think I’m feeling right
I’m on my feet again
I start checking the door
Hope you don’t walk in
Cause it won’t be long
Until my buzz is gone
It’s hit or miss, yeah, you never know
I’ll stay all night until you show
Cause the only good time in this town
Is the same place where heartache hangs around
Damn this place for being too damn small
Plenty of farms and a shortage of bars
But every Friday night
I’m back under that neon light
Just when I think I’m feeling right
I’m on my feet again
I start checking the door
Hope you don’t walk in
Cause it won’t be long
Until my buzz is gone
It’s hit or miss, yeah, you never know
I’ll stay all night until you show
Cause the only good time in this town
Is the same place where heartache hangs around
Maybe one day I’ll find a way out
But for right now pour me another round
Just when I think I’m feeling right
I’m on my feet again
I start checking the door
Hope you don’t walk in
Cause it won’t be long
Until my buzz is gone
It’s hit or miss, yeah, you never know
I’ll stay all night until you show
Cause the only good time in this town
Is the same place where heartache hangs around
Where heartache hangs around
