"The Way I Feel Tonight" lyrics - BOBBY BARE

BOBBY BARE
"The Way I Feel Tonight"

Two streets up and two more back
Right next door to the railroad track
Take of wine in a paper sack
If you want to stay alive
A girl named Rita and a drunk old man
Living like cats in a garbage can
Take my word, old Rita can make you feel alive

So put out the lights and pour the wine
We ain't good looking but we're looking fine
Dancing and spinning in the light
Slam the shutters and shut the shades
We'll never get to heaven but we got it made
Things ain't great but things'll be all right
Lord I wish I had a bottle of the way I feel tonight

She don't ask too much of me
Like the girls in Tennessee
She don't need no guarantee to make a cowboy smile
She don't wonder where I've been
She just digs the mood I'm in
She just wan't to live in sin
And shake it up awhile

So put out the lights and pour the wine...
