Fix me a drink, bartender
I need something hard for my hurt
No matter how hard I try
I just can’t deny
My baby’s a long way from home

A diner; a truck stop gas station
Drinking black coffee for days
She was the closest to heaven
That I’d get with my evil ways
I wish that our love was affection
And hadn’t been anger and spite
For now that she’s missing and I’m reminiscing
Regret is all I’ve got tonight

Fix me a drink, bartender
I need something hard for my hurt
No matter how hard I try
I just can’t deny
My baby’s a long way from home

When you grow fond of your lover
You’ll figure there always is time
But time’s constant movement is priceless
And the future don’t promise a dime
So fill up my empty glass quickly
Before it flows over with regret
You empty yourself of a person
And you end up some dark silhouette

Fix me a drink, bartender
I need something hard for my hurt
No matter how hard I try
I just can’t deny
My baby’s a long way from home
