The Wallflowers - The Dive Bar In My Heart lyrics

[Verse 1] Once in a while you still come around You look me over and you look me down It's just you and that, that lazy barback And your favorite little clown [Verse 2] You're a long walk from Avenue A You're a train ride outta your way You slip in like smoke outta your coat With a joke that doesn't play Now that's all she wrote, now I'm on my way [Refrain] In the dive bar in my heart [Verse 3] Strange to see you on this side of town It's not your people or your kind of crowd Just nobodies here, we're drinking flat beer Away from the battleground [Verse 4] There's no sleigh bells in winter time There's no top shelf or decent wine It's another slow jam, same awful band It's the last stop, the end of line And you're on the list where I'm easy to find [Refrain] In the dive bar in my heart In the dive bar in my heart In the dive bar in my heart [Bridge] Every dog has its day Then don't I too get a bone? I'd follow you down to Hell in a boat If that's where you're going Now if we don't hang together, baby Then we just hang on our own [Verse 5] Now there's snow coming down on the steps And the locals have already left And I'll be here late, I'll close up and wait With your perfume still on my neck Now the whole world's awake and I've overslept [Refrain] In the dive bar in my heart [Outro] In the dive bar in my heart In the dive bar in my heart In the dive bar in my heart In the dive bar in my heart
