lyrics
In every bar in every town,
with every shot, you were my alcohol.
Bitter-sweet, you filled my empty skull
as Joe set them up and I knocked ‘em down.
You were sorrow that would never drown,
Venus glimmering on the half shell,
in every bar in every town,
with every shot, you were my alcohol.
Now it’s tea, three sugars, lemon,
a good woman at my beck and call,
but I prefer your hell to heaven,
those beds of flame where I drank my fill.
In every bar in every town,
with every shot, you were my alcohol.
with every shot, you were my alcohol.
Bitter-sweet, you filled my empty skull
as Joe set them up and I knocked ‘em down.
You were sorrow that would never drown,
Venus glimmering on the half shell,
in every bar in every town,
with every shot, you were my alcohol.
Now it’s tea, three sugars, lemon,
a good woman at my beck and call,
but I prefer your hell to heaven,
those beds of flame where I drank my fill.
In every bar in every town,
with every shot, you were my alcohol.
