[00:01.41]	Songs Title：barstool
[00:14.18]	Old man on a barstool watching TV
[00:19.67]	Got up and came over to sit closer to me
[00:24.92]	He said You look familiar to someone I knew
[00:30.36]	But when were your age we were older than you
[00:36.30]	Jimmy was twenty and I seventeen
[00:41.74]	And to us there was nothing but girls and machines
[00:47.30]	Jimmy got married and I went to war
[00:52.80]	I still don't know what we were doing it for
[00:57.92]	But if you'll buy me a drink--turkey on ice
[01:03.86]	Then I could give you some advice
[01:08.86]	You just stay in the bar
[01:14.43]	For as long as you can
[01:20.11]	As long as you're drinking
[01:23.49]	Then you've got the world in your hand
[01:43.41]	There's no shame in hanging your world by a string
[01:48.91]	And you know there's no harm in not thinking a thing
[01:54.16]	But trying to find a place for yourself in this world
[01:59.41]	Is like trying to make a wife of an American girl
[02:05.29]	If you'll trade me a drink for a story or two
[02:10.66]	Then you'll know what you need to do
[02:15.73]	You just stay in the bar
[02:21.23]	For as long as you can
[02:27.04]	You know love is for sissies
[02:30.23]	It's whiskey that makes you a man
[02:38.41]
[03:00.98]	Now the old man got up and stumbled out in the street
[03:06.54]	He'd been drinking all day and left his bar tab with me
[03:12.23]	I didn't have the money to cover his bill
[03:17.48]	But I found me a man who looked like me, younger still
[03:22.67]	And said, Buy me a drink and I'll tell you a tale
[03:28.29]	About the old man who taught me so well
[03:33.60]	You just stay in the bar
[03:39.06]	For as long as you can
[03:44.43]	Hell I know you're a friend
[03:47.43]	I can tell by the shakes in your hand
[03:52.68]	You just stay in the bar
[04:01.43]	For as long as you dare
[04:07.31]	As long as you're tipping
[04:10.37]	Then you've got a good friend somewhere
