lyrics

There are nights when I sit at the bar
thinking to myself how did I get here?
Feels like something should be going on
But it’s just what it is, is like a ghost in the air
Never really get it, never understand
Only ever happy with a drink in my hand
If I wasn’t so outnumbered, I could make my stand
But I am here to tell you

Tonight, I’ll be out in the crowd,
Singing loud, singing loud
Lights will sparkle on the sweat of my brow
Dancing proud, dancing proud
The river overflows straight into my cup,
All my friends are there just to hold me up
Baby don’t ya bother trying to call me a cab
Cause Jesus gonna pay my tab
I said, Jesus gonna pay my tab

It’s nice to see you out on your own
You got a shine on your shoe and your hair is combed
I guess I must’ve missed that bus
While I was digging for change to bail you out of the hole
Funny how the saved always leave you behind
I guess your memories are shorter when you climb
But you’ll always have my heart cuz true love is blind
And I am here to tell you

Tonight, I’ll be out in the crowd,
Singing loud, singing loud
Lights will sparkle on the sweat of my brow
Dancing proud, dancing proud
The river overflows straight into my cup,
All my friends are there just to hold me up
Baby don’t ya bother trying to call me a cab
Cause Jesus gonna pay my tab
I said, Jesus gonna pay my tab
