McCarthy Trenching — The Barroom And I (Sure Miss You) lyrics

Lyrics

You were smoking a cigarette
When you figured out you were pregnant
So I drove you to my house
So that you could lie down
That smoky old barroom
It sure does miss you
But not half as bad as I do
Since you moved out of town
The barroom and I sure miss you
The beer’s not as cold
They won’t let you smoke
Every joke is old
All the whiskey tastes sour
It’s a cheese-paring pour
There are no smiling faces
When I walk through the door
That baby is walking now
And there’s another on the way
Their daddy standing there handsome
On your wedding day
You moved to California —
That’s where you’ve always belonged
The kids can swim in the ocean
And you can sit in the sun
The bartender thinks I’m a creep
Most of the time I agree
Though I’ve tried to convince him
He will not believe
That your leaving had nothing
To do with me
