Paul Mark & Тhe Van Dorens - The Drinks Are on Me
I come from a long line of barstool companions
Tell your story man have I got one for you
Life’s too short for silence
I may be right, I may be wrong
But no story ever fell on deaf ears
That had a bottle to help it along
I come from a long line of higher education
The higher I get the more my lesson gets learned
And now, now that she’d gone
I can stay out all night long
So tonight, the drinks are on me
Nevermind the place is empty
Nevermind the clock striking three
The sun rising over the city
It’s a sight you really ought to see
So fire up that jukebox
Mix the drinks up strong
She may not be here with me
But I still love that song
I come from a long line of late night walkers
Flashing neon is a siren to my soul
And at home the clock ticks like a gong
So I’ll stay out all night long
And say tonight, the drinks are on me
Bridge
I come from a long line of self-made men
Everything I got, brother I paid for in spades
I ain’t made out of money
But if I was I share the wealth
If a man’s honest with strangers
You can bet he’s honest with himself
I come from a long line of closet gamblers
Roulette wheel eyes and a crapshoot smile
And the years when winning was my style
They all come back to me for a little while
When I say tonight, the drinks are on me...
And my real friends they never run away
And they smile, especially when I say
That tonight, the drinks are on me...
블르스 음악 쪽에서는 활발한 활동을 하는 아티스트 입니다.
다만 일반 대중에게 알려지지 않은 제작자이며 연주자로도 활동 합니다.
앨범도 많이 발표했는데 지역적으로는 알려졌지만 전국적으로는 지지를 얻지
못하는 결과가 그를 스타로 나서지 못하게 했나 봅니다.
아무튼 노래 한곡 듣죠,
