Lyrics
LATE NIGHTS AND BAR LIGHTS
Written by: Howard Delnick
Intro:
LATE NIGHTS AND BAR LIGHTS, HAVE MADE A LOSER OUT OF ME
Verse:
I JUST SIT HERE EV'RY NIGHT
WANTIN' TO HOLD YOU TIGHT
AND WISHIN' IT COULD BE LIKE IT USED TO BE
BUT I KNOW IN MY HEART
THAT IT'S TEARIN' US APART
THIS LATE NIGHT HABIT THAT'S COME OVER ME
Chorus:
LATE NIGHTS AND BAR LIGHTS, HAVE MADE A LOSER OUT OF ME
I JUST SIT HERE EV'RY NIGHT, 'TIL CLOSIN' TIME AT THREE
AND THEN I COME HOME WANTIN' LOVIN'
BUT YOU WANT NO PART OF ME
LATE NIGHTS AND BAR LIGHTS, HAVE MADE A LOSER OUT OF ME
Verse:
WELL ALL THE GUYS THINK IT'S FUNNY
'CAUSE ALL I DO IS TALK OF YOU
WHILE I'M BANGIN' BACK ANOTHER
WOBBLIN'ON A BAR ROOM STOOL
I WISH THAT I COULD LEAVE
AND COME BACK HOME TO YOU
AND KICK THIS LATE NIGHT HABIT THAT'S COME OVER ME
Chorus: (twice)
