Clancy's Tavern

VERSE 1:Any minute the 5 o'clock crowd will be coming
Taps'll be flowing with beer
The cigarette smoke is soon to be risin'
And at 5:30
Clancy gets here
She knows all their faces, she's practicallyraised them
And that why they're loyal and true
They'll pay their tabs, and that pays the light bill
And she keeps their glass full of brew
Chorus:And the welders and the drivers
And the old nine to fivers and the regular
Joe'sof the world
Are singing here's to you
Clancy and yourneighborhood tavern
Pour me another my girl
There's a waitress named
Lily, shows up at 7
To make sure their service is great
And there's a black dude named
Elmo thatcooks in the kitchen
Burgers & chicken fried steak
Yeah around 9 o'clock the band will startplaying
And the music will fill up the air
Then they'll take a break every 45 minutes
And the jukebox takes over from there
Repeat Chorus
Steel Guitar &
Fiddle Instrumental
It's 1:35, last call's upon us
It's time to settle the score
Won't you call me a cab and bring me a tab
And while you're at it, bring me one more
She's cleaned the last table and shined up the bar
It's late & everyone's gone
Then she'll cock her pistol and count all her money
Then drive that old
Chrysler back home
Repeat Chorus
Yeah good night sweet
ClancyIn your neighborhood tavern
We'll see you tommorow my girl
