Everybody There Was Drinkin’

[Verse 1]
I went to a bar just the other night
To check out the few of my friends
I'm just an everyday workin' guy
I can't always follow the trends
Stepped up, ordered up, a shot and a beer
The bartender actin' like he just couldn't hear
'Had twenty bucks that I just couldn't seem to spend

[Pre-Chorus]
Waitress there
[?] square
Cat's playin' pool
Comedy fool
Couldn't figure out what the trouble could be
Then I began to see

[Chorus]
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me
Everytime'd say hi they'd get up and start to leave
'Felt like mud, drinkin' a bud
'Threw out a line, but it was a dud
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me

[Verse 2]
Ther'in a cute little glass on the slam that says "please try me"
But I took a little sip one time and thought it was slimy
Funny little drink: Shiny and cold
Served in a glass that's hard to hold
But it sure looks good there sitting there
Wet and shiny

Not long as a beer
'r quick as a shot
Nearly as hip as a single ball scotch
For a workin' guy, it sure costs a lot
And I can't buy many with the money I got

[Chorus]
But everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me
Everytime'd say hi they'd get up and start to leave
'Felt like mud, drinkin' a bud
'Threw out a line, but it was a dud
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me

[Pre-Chorus]
Waitress there
[?] is square
Cat's playin' pool
Comedy fool
Couldn't figure out what the trouble could be
Then I began to see

[Chorus]
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me
Everytime'd say hi they'd get up and start to leave
'Felt like mud, drinkin' a bud
'Threw out a line, but it was a dud
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me

[Refrain]
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me
Hyeh!
Everybody there was drinkin' Martinis but me
