Well I'm just a bartender And I don't like my work But I don't mind the money at all I've seen lots of sad faces And lots of bad cases Of folks with their backs to the wall (Chorus:) But I got four walls around me, to hold my life To keep me from going astray And a honky tonk angel, to hold me tight To keep me from slipping away Well I can light up your smokes I can laugh at your jokes I can watch you fall down on your knees I can close down this bar Oh and gas up my car
