Barlight

In the style of

Charlie Robison

Lyrics

well when i was young
my mama read me
nursery rhymes
beside my bed

and though
they sounded
mighty fine
they made no sense
to me

now that i am
all grown-up
it seems my nights
have changed as such
so i went out
and made me up
a nursery rhyme
for me

it goes barlight
bar bright
first bar
that i see tonight
wish i may
wish i might
find someone
to hold me tight

hey diddle diddle
the man
with the fiddle
and the girls
sing along
with the tunes

just-a one more dance
till ya turn out
the lights
and you can
shut down this saloon

you know
i've never understood
how a big ol' gal
could raise no kids
in a shoe

and any ol' jack
goes jumpin' a candle
needs to find
somethin' better to do

and-a rub-a-dub-dub
three men in a tub
sure sounds
kinda funny to me

so i made up
a honky-tonk
nursery rhyme
and it's the only one
i'll sing

it goes barlight
bar bright
first bar
that i see tonight
wish i may
wish i might
find someone
to hold me tight

hey diddle diddle
the man
with the fiddle
and the girls
sing along
with the tunes

just-a one more dance
till ya turn out
the lights
and you can
shut down this saloon

i said
i never understood
how a big ol' gal
could raise no kids
in a shoe

and any ol' jack
goes jumpin' a candle
needs to find
somethin' better to do

and-a rub-a-dub-dub
three men in a tub
sure sounds
kinda funny to me

so i made up
a honky-tonk
nursery rhyme
and it's the only one
i'll sing

it goes barlight
bar bright
first bar
that i see tonight
wish i may
wish i might
find someone
to hold me tight

hey diddle diddle
the man
with the fiddle
and the girls
sing along
with the tunes

just-a one more dance
till ya turn out
the lights
and you can
shut down this saloon

i said
just-a one more dance
till ya turn out
the lights
and you can
shut down this saloon
