The bar is empty and your lookin' to score
Another drink before I head for the door
I don't know you from a hole in the ground
Somebody's sayin' that you get around

The band was playin your favorite song
Dancing' and singin' we were getting along
Then I saw you the mornin' light
The bar was empty, it was just one night

'Cause I been around
I been around before
I been around
I been around before

You wanted me to take you out on a date
Now you're tellin' me you think you might be late
I keep wondering what I'm gonna do
I don't really wanna be with you

Last night you called me up on the phone
But I said I wanna be alone
Baby baby, I got my life
The bar was empty it was just one night

'Cause I been around
I been around before
I been around
I been around before

Oh baby, when you gonna see the light
We both know you ain't the marryin' type
And I don't know you from a can of paint
I'm not sayin' I'm some kind of saint

Call up the doctor and make some kinda plan
Don't tell your mama you're in some kinda jam
Baby baby, you got your life
The bar was empty, it was just one night

'Cause I been around
I been around before
I been around
I been around before
