The Old Bar

from Banjaxed by Alex McMurray

lyrics

I don’t want to go
back to the old bar
there’s too many memories there.
I don’t want to go
sit in the old spots
climb the old stairs
yeah, I just want to go
live on the moon,
be so much simpler then.
I don’t want to go
back to the old bar again.

I don’t want to live
in a town filled with people
without a thing to do
I don't want to sit
and talk to nobody
who say they’ve seen you
yeah, I just want to go
where nobody asks me
'baby how you you been?'
i dont want to go
back to the old bar

I will race you to the bottom
I’m a lot nearer than I used to be
I don’t want to look at my face in that mirror
have things got cloudy on me
or are they clearer?
I don’t want to go
back to the old bar again.

I don’t want to try my luck
in the new joints
beat myself in the head
I ain’t gonna do it
the same as the last time
I’m going away instead
and there will come a day
I will write you a letter
that i'll never send.

but I don’t want to go
back to the old bar .
I don’t want to go
back to the old bar
I don’t want to go
back to the old bar again
