Lyrics

It was a Friday night at a honky tonk outside of town They had a four band bill with the cats really laying it down Yeah the dance floor was packed with the boppers really getting down when up comes the owner just cussin' and a wearin' a frown He said I hope you're havin' fun, I hope that's what you came here for You been gettin' 5 bucks from every one who walks in the door But the bartender's lonesome she hasn't had a drink to pour And the waitress just quit, she said we don't need her no more This ain't no coffee house, ain't got no dime lemonade And I couldn't give a damn about whatever was the music you played And I really don't care about whatever was the deal we made There better be some drinkin' if your thinkin' that you want to get paid Well just about then there was a grandma playin' the slots And the bell started ringin' when grandma hit the jackpot And grandma screamed and said "My, I'm as lucky as can be" So leave the band alone and buy everyone a drink on me
