The Lyrics

I picture Hank Williams or some twangy country singer doing this parody.
Well I just heard,
The news today,
Anit seems my life
Is gonna change

I close my eyes
begin to pray
Then tears of pain
Stream down my face

The Bar's not open
On 3rd and Sunrise
They shut down the place
And moved out everything

The bar's not open
The bar's not open

Well I don't know
If I got the strength
To start again, at a different place
With different darts, anda different floor
I guess I'll go to the liquor store.

The bar's not open
On 3rd and Sunrise
They shut down the place
And moved out everything
My bar's not open
Now everything has changed
They took my MUG
They took my everything
The bar's not open
The bar's not open
They moved out everything, oh yeah
The bars not open
Not open

If I had just one wish
Only one request
I hope that someday I
Pass my bartender test
So I can get a job, at a Honky-tonk
And make sure that my bar's....always open..

The bars not open
On 3rd and Sunrise
Cuz they shut down the place
And moved out everything
The Bar's not open
Now everything has changed
They stole my MUG
They stole my everything
The Bar's not open
The Bar's not open
They stole my everything, oh yeah
The bars not open
Not open
