Box speaker talkin' out of tune
Two for one on the Blue Lagoon
Another lost and found
Bartender takes another pass
Puts the salt on the rim of another glass
And he sets it down
I know every color of every neon sign
Hashin' out a heartache in the back of my mind.

Chorus:
Down at the lonely grill
Got nothin' but time to kill
At the end of every day
I sit in a corner booth
And do nothin' but think of you
And the love we threw away
And I guess I always will
Down at the lonely grill.

Sad eyed waitress called Betty Lynn
Got her order pad and a ballpoint pen
Said, ''What'll it be?''
I said, ''A tall glass of cold regret
A full order of loneliness
Like every night this week.''
I shoulder my pride and I drink it down
Another smoke filled evenin' with no fire to be found.

Chorus:
Down at the lonely grill
Got nothin' but time to kill
At the end of every day
I sit in a corner booth
And do nothin' but think of you
And the love we threw away
And I guess I always will
Down at the lonely grill.

Lonely grill
I sit in a corner booth
And do nothin' but think of you
And the love we threw away
And I guess I always will
Down at the lonely grill.

Lonely grill.

Ow, Down at the lonely grill.
Oh, down at the lonely grill.
Oh, down at the lonely grill.
Oh, at the lonely grill...
