Georges Bar Lyrics

My brother and I used to go down to George's Bar
we'd drink big O's until they close down the place
we'd talk about our life long ambitions
I still recall the smile upon his face.
He took off for the bright lights down in Austin
he said don't you know there ain't no money here
he made a billion bucks just selling computers
I still go down to George's and drink my beer.
horus
Yeah, he's gone, he may be gone, but I'm still here.
Well he's gone, he may be gone, but I'm still here.
There was this curly headed girl back in the seventh grade
she didn't even know she caught my eye
we dated for a while back in high school
I thought that one day she'd be my wife.
The road took a turn somewhere around eighteen
she took off to find her own way
fell in for some Nashville high roller
I know he gonna break her heart one day.
horus
Yeah, she's gone, she may be gone, but I'm still here.
Well she's gone, she may be gone, but I'm still here.
I used to go to my grandpas house every Sunday,
watch the dallas cowboys on TV,
sit around sometimes he'd tell us stories,
about how simple life used to be.
My grandpa died a year ago last Sunday,
I thought to myself he was one helluva' man,
and I know when the darkness surrounds me,
he reaches out and he takes my hand.
horus
Yeah, he's gone, he may be gone, but I'm still here.
Well he's gone, he may be gone, but I'm still here.
