barstool

sitting on a bar stool
sipping a stale beer
someone in the jukebox screams
"i gotta get outa here"
bar room breath, and cigarettes
my tray is filled with butts
the man next to me asks his beer
why he's going nuts
some poor slob says he can play
so he's pounding keys
and someone from the juke box
begs...please..please..please

Hey, I've heard this poem before . . . in four different country songs.

if you did..it came from me.
i wrote this way back..prob. 1980 or about.

a reply to: JDeLattre89
i would really like to hear these songs you speak of

Nice one!

Not one song . . . I meant as compliment, it sounded like four different country songs and yeah I think they were all from the 80s. Of course I haven't heard any country songs post 94.

Ok, so one of em was by alice cooper but the rest were country songs . . .













yup, that covered the poem rather well
