Music & lyrics by Angie Louise

lyrics

Hello, bartender - it's been a long wait
Is it still happy hour, or am I too late?
I never drank whiskey, I never drank rye
Is there still time to learn while there's light in the sky?

Turn back the clock on the wall
And pour me some time before night falls
Oh the bottles are blue
And the barstools are high
And the little lights twinkle - hung out, strung out
like stars in the sky
So hello, bartender
Won't you smile at me like I'm still twenty-two?
And pour me a drink
Like I matter to you

Listen, bartender - first you're a girl
they call pretty, or maybe call plain
Then you're the housewife who lives down the lane
Keeping an eye out for the milk going sour
Never learned much about cocktail hour

Slow down that clock going by
And pour me some wishes that warm me like kisses
or sweet little lies
Oh bartender show me, love me
Just don't tell me I'm through
We could be anywhere
where the bottles are blue

Well I know that it's true -
there's a place now where I ought to be
Where the work's never through
They'll be waiting on me
But I never drank whiskey
I never drank rye
Is there still time to learn
With that moon in the sky?
Oh the bottles are blue
Yeah the bottles are blue
Oh the bottles are blue
La da da da da...
