.

A kind of Bluesy song I wrote in the 70's   and recently re-recorder it.

                                                                                                                                                      DRINKING BAR BLUES

Chorus      
DRINKING BAR BLUES IS WHAT I WANNA CHOOSE                    WHERE I CAN DRINK WHEN I GOTTA THINK WHEN SINGING MY DRINKING BAR BLUES

PRETTY GIRL SITTING THERE BY THE WALL                                        I’M SURE I DON’T KNOW HER AT ALL ( sitting on her own near no one at all)
I GO AND ASK HER WHERE SHE’S FROM                                  she says ‘I AIN’T GONNA TELL YOU YE BUM’

DRINKING BAR BLUES IS WHAT I WANNA CHOOSE                      WHERE I CAN DRINK WHEN I GOTTA THINK WHEN SINGING MY DRINKING BAR BLUES

WALKED INTO A BAR ON MY OWN ONE NIGHT                              ORDERED A DOUBLE AS WAS FEELING UPTIGHT
THE BARMAN TOLD ME HE COULDN’T SERVE ME                        ‘IT’S RESERVED FOR COUPLES ONLY’ SAID HE

DRINKING BAR BLUES IS WHAT I WANNA CHOOSE                       WHERE I CAN DRINK WHEN I GOTTA THINK  WHEN SINGING MY DRINKING BAR BLUES

CLEARED OUT OF THERE AND WENT DOWN TOWN                       WENT INTO THIS PLACE THAT WAS FULL OF SOUND
STRUGGLED TO THE BAR AND ORDERED A BEER                           THE GIRL SAID ‘I DIDN’T KNOW YOU WERE QUEER’ …..

DRINKING BAR BLUES IS WHAT I WANNA CHOOSE                      WHERE I CAN DRINK WHEN I GOTTA THINK WHEN SINGING MY DRINKING BAR BLUES

WENT THEN TO MY LOCAL WHERE EVERYONE THERE KNEW ME                  IT’S A KINNA STIFFLING AND THE BEER AIN’T SO FREE
IT’S THE SORT OF PLACE WHERE THERE’S PLENTY OF DRINK         PUSHING AND A SHOVING BUT NO TIME TO THINK ….

DRINKING BAR BLUES IS WHAT I WANNA CHOOSE                               WHERE I CAN DRINK WHEN I GOTTA THINK WHEN SINGING MY DRINKING BAR BLUES ----------------
