Pour Me Another

Pour Me Another lyrics

Intro

Room shakes, glasses grin
One rasp, then the night begins

Verse 1

Last call hanging by the door
I wore my bad luck like before
His text sits heavy in my coat
I read it once and laugh a throat

I nurse the glass, I let it ride
Keep the buzzing on the inside
If I answer, I’ll say too much
So I take one more, just to hush

Pre-Chorus

He can wait on the line
I can stall one more time
I’ve got a smile for the room
And a lie for the gloom

Chorus

Pour me another
(I don't need it!)
Pour me another
(she don't need it!)
Pour me another
I know!
Pour me another
(anooother)

Verse 2

Back booth boys with the knowing look
Count my sins like a pocketbook
They say, “Nell, that man’s a bad idea”
I say, “Yeah, and the pub’s still here”

Lipstick on a chipped-up cup
I drink slow so I don’t speak up
Your name lights up that little screen
I turn it face down, let it lean

Pre-Chorus

He can wait on the line
I can stall one more time
I’ve got a joke for the crowd
And I wear it too loud

Chorus

Pour me another
(I don't need it!)
Pour me another
(she don't need it!)
Pour me another
I know!
Pour me another
(anooother)

Bridge

Mm-mm, mm-mm
I mutter, “Tomorrow sounds nice”
Then the stomp comes back twice

Pour me another
(I don't need it!)
Pour me another
(she don't need it!)
Pour me another
I know!
Pour me another
(anooother)

Pour me another
(he can keep that text!)
Pour me another
(I’m not done yet!)
Pour me another
I know!
Pour me another
(anooother)

Outro

Room shakes, glass in my hand
I’m my own worst second chance
