| Lyrics: | It wasnt my intention to eavesdrop,
But there a guy sat, two stools away,
And you could tell
the bartender knew him
And that hed been there some other day.
And while I sipped my
libation,
I overheard his conversation...
Re---member
How Id walk in,
What
excitement there would be?
Never less than twenty people,
I had lots of friends, you
see.
I gave the party, I was the host.
Everyone loved me,
I was the
most.
Champagne and plenty of it,
Real imported caviar,
And the hat check girl got
fifty
Just for lighting my cigar.
I kept em laughin, jokes by the yard.
Everyone
loved me,
I was a card.
And I had a girl,
A beautiful girl,
Her whole world, I
think, consisted of mink
And diamonds and pearls.
Because she was mine,
Id glitter
and shine,
And life was a ball, and wasnt it all
So cozy n fine?
But nothing lasts
forever,
And the deepest well runs dry.
Just cause Ive stopped rolling sevens
Doesnt
mean I have to cry.
Ill take that nightcap,
One more wont show.
And
incidentally...maybe you know...
Where, oh, where, oh, where
Did everyone go?
Where, oh, where, oh, where
Did everyone go? |
