Lyrics
Saturday night my friends come to get me
They're smiling, excited, a night on the town
We walk in the barroom, a place I need not be
I'm just a sad misfit, alone in the crowd
Once was a time, I was happy and smiling
The jokes that you told me, kept me aglow
I still feel your soft breath, your arms wrapped around me
Sadness surrounds me, where did love go?
My friends hit the dance floor, they motion me over
They shake and they shimmy, they sing, "Twist and Shout"
But I've found good comp'ny in a bottle of whiskey
Me and my bottle gonna sit this one out.
There's a man selling flowers comes up to my bar stool
His smile turns to worry when he looks in my eyes
He hands me a long-stem, says "A rose for the lady."
Pulls out his kerchief, says, "Honey, don't you cry!"
Oh, I can't get over
The pain that still holds me, you won't leave my mind
My heart has been shattered and I'm barely breathing
It's all I can do not to break down and cry.
There's a man on the dance floor, he motions me over
Wants to know if I'd care to take a spin around
But the last thing I want is a poor substitution
Me and my bottle gonna sit this one out
Me and my bottle gonna sit this one out.
