pop a top again
i've just got time for one more round
set 'em up my friend

then i'll be gone
and you can let some other fool sit down


i'ld like for you to listen to
a joke i heard today
from a woman who

said she was through
and calmly walked away
i tried to smile
and did awhile

but it felt so out of place
did you ever hear of a clown with teardrops
streamin' down his face


pop a top again
i've just got time for one more round
set 'em up my friend

then i'll be gone
and you can let some other fool sit down


home for me is misery
and here i'm wastin' time
'cause a row of fools
on a row of stools
is not what's on my mind
but then you see
her leaving me
is not what i prefer
so it's either here just drinkin' beer
or home remembering her


pop a top again
i've just got time for one more round
set 'em up my friend

then i'll be gone
and you can let some other fool sit down
