Dance Hall Crashers - Whisky And Gin Lyrics
In the back room of the bar, missed her being good as I saw him,Everything was hidden by all the greasy hair he was in.Never looked again at me seemed so sad,I tried to offer him my shot of whisky, but he said “I only drink gin.”We sat there quietly purposely ignoring the room.He smiled briskly his shirt was dirty and torn.Ever lasting glances left open any chancesBut he stole my heart when he ordered a double for me…In the back room of the bar,In the back room of the bar.He made a drink up for me and him,Coz I drink whisky but he only ever drinks ginOh that’s the way it is with me.Went to the ladies roomWhen I returned to my chair his hands were in my bag,Ridden with guilt everywhere.Took out a photo of an old RomeoThrew it over his shoulder and rested his hand on my kneeWe play these games were we go through the whole alphabetHe’d have an Adam Knee and I had a Dixie TulipWent through an Artillery, Cruiser and a Diamond KissPartying till we drag an ending with a kiss in the dark.In the back room of the barIn the back room of the bar.He made a drink up for me and him,Coz I drink whisky but he only ever drinks ginLast call came right at oneGlasses were empty and dry.We got our second winBut all we had was a dime.Didn’t even seem to careThe bar tender unaware,We jumped over the counterTook off with our hands full of boozeIn the back room of the bar,In the back room of the barWe made a drink up for me and himCoz I drink whisky and he only ever drinks…… In the back room of the barIn the back room of the barHe made a drink up for me and him,Coz I drink whisky but he only ever drinks gin.
