| Goodbye was the very easy word for you to say
|
| But then you never cared the way I do
|
| Your love was all that kept me going now that it’s gone
|
| Where can I turn but to the only friends I ever knew
|
| Going to back to bottles and barstools these are the favorite tools
|
| Of any lonely fool who needs to forget
|
| They tell me that friends in need are truly friends in deed
|
| And bottles and barstools have never failed me yet
|
| Well our love can be summed up in 25 words or less
|
| Just another flame that never made a fire
|
| And shoulders to cry on are an easy thing to find
|
| Just look for any set of lights that spell out b-a-r
|
| I’m going to back to bottles and ol' barstools these are the favorite tools
|
| For any lonely fool who needs to forget
|
| Well they tell me that friends in need are truly friends in deed
|
| And bottles and barstools have never failed me yet
|
| Yes bottles and barstools ain’t failed ol' Jerry Lee yet ah set me up one more |
