ROCK AND ROLL BARSee the guy sittin' by the bar He's been pushed a little too far A lousy job, a bitchy wife I think he's wonderin' if he'll get a life Now there goes Judy She's a waitress Her face is pretty Her legs are long Your undressing her with your eyes Huh! Take a number Get in line Got off of work at a quarter past five Got in my car and I started to drive Set up the stage now we're feelin' low A shot of whiskey chased with a beer Ironic smile now we're ready to go Come on Baby now it's alright You're in a Rock and Roll Bar tonight Leave your inhibitions over by the door You've worked hard now it's time to score Come on Baby now it's alright You're in a Rock and Roll Bar tonight The smoke is hangin' in the air like a fog The men are sniffin' around like dogs (Alright) It's kind of funny It's sort of strange The way we play these primal games From the bottom of the ladder, Baby To the top Strip away the varnish and we're all the same See the pretty lady dancin' with her man He holds her close He don't let go Over his shoulder she stares at the band Her eyes are hungry He don't even know One forty five now the dance floor sweats We're not through celebratin' yet Another week's gone and we're still alive We love our freedom to party Freedom to sing Freedom to love Your moment has arrived Come on Baby now it's alright You're in a Rock and Roll Bar tonight We got the power, got the soul And, Lord knows, we got Rock and Roll Come on Baby now it's alright You're in a Rock and Roll Bar tonight Brothers and sisters, one and all It's last call for alcohol (Come on) It's last call for alcohol It's last call for alcohol Last call for alcohol
