about

The bar-man's blues...

lyrics

Old man a-come a-knocking at my door/‘What you up to Friday night?/My bar is failing and I‘m too frail to repair it/Is there a chance that you can make it right?’/Four people come a-walking through the door/The night goes by on cruise control/And then we talk of life and all those dreams that won‘t come true now/And play a little Northern Soul/Better out than in/Apathy‘s a sin/Lost souls sitting with their cheap booze home alone now/That‘s no way for people to live/Word gets out, we keep our prices way down low, yeah/A community, a co-operative/Lock the door we can have a little smoke, yeah/Like it‘s still the good old days/Then we laugh and flirt and wonder, ‘Who‘s the coolest band we‘ve seen?’/It‘s The Mams, we‘ve come to blow you away/With several brands of gin/The majesty begins
