HEY BARTENDER

It’s Monday morning and I’m back at work
By Tuesday afternoon boss man’s a jerk
But, Wednesday night’s softball...Thursday night’s pool
Friday’s coming on and all I want to do
Is raise a toast to us hard-working women and men
I say, hey bartender, put another beer in my hand

I work real hard for every buck I’m paid
It took me years of working hard to master my trade
I do what I do...I get the job done
Friday’s coming on so let’s have some fun
And raise a toast to us hard-working women and men
I say, hey bartender, put another beer in my hand

Factories are closing down with no end in sight
(No end in sight…)
They’re giving our jobs to robots…man, it just ain’t right
(Man, that just ain’t right…)
The working class is hanging on with all of our might
(All of our might…)
But if push comes to shove, I’m throwing off the gloves
And I swear there’s gonna be a fight

It’s Monday morning and I’m back at work
By Tuesday afternoon boss man’s a jerk
But, Wednesday night’s softball...Thursday night’s pool
Friday’s coming on and all I want to do
Is raise a toast to us hard-working women and men
I say, hey bartender, put another beer in my hand
I say, hey bartender, put another beer in my hand

Hey bartender, how ‘bout a beer?
Hey bartender, how ‘bout a beer?
Hey bartender, how ‘bout a beer?
Hey bartender, how ‘bout a beer?
Hey bartender, I’m counting on you
To serve something cold...another beer will do, yeah!

Hey bartender…Hey bartender…
