Mel's Bar

Well I woke up this morning
Got out of my bed
I couldn't seem to get you
Outta my head
I went off to work
But I didn't last long
I'm off to Mel's
I'm singing this song

Cause here I am
Sitting on this bar stool again
Damn near getting tired
Of the smell of that gin
Well I love you dear
& it's all that I know
But here I am drunk
In Mel's bar again yeah

Well what does one do
When his love goes away
What does one do
When she says it's to stay
How do I act
Well I don't really know
But I've never seen the end
Of this picture show

Cause here I am
Sitting on this bar stool again
Damn near getting tired
Of the smell of that gin
Well I love you dear
& it's all that I know
But here I am drunk
In Mel's bar again yeah

Well I gotta talk to you
Baby somehow
See if we can get this mess
Straightened out now
I know I was wrong
By playing on you
But please come back to this
Drunken old fool

Cause here I am
Sitting on this bar stool again
Damn near getting tired
Of the smell of that gin
Well I love you dear
& it's all that I know
But here I am drunk
In Mel's bar
I said Mel's bar again
