La Barra Del Bar
Delaossa
The Bar Counter
Juan told me that Pedro just had a kid
He's broke and they’ve fronted him some stash
I’ll pour another for Andrés even if he’s a deadbeat
Even if he’s a bad dad and a lousy husband
The worst of every home is looking for a place at this hour
They can’t handle the fifth and the sixth, always crying
And they ask for forgiveness even if it’s unforgivable
Tomorrow they’ll forget what they’re about to tell me
At the bar counter
Someone orders another whiskey
I don’t charge for serving
I charge for listening
At the bar counter
Someone orders another whiskey
I don’t charge for serving
I charge for listening
He comes out of the bathroom and goes back in
Snorts sand, smokes crack
I’m not one of them by pure chance
I can’t serve you another one
Sorry, I have to close
Tomorrow will be another night
At the bar counter
Someone orders another whiskey
I don’t charge for serving
I charge for listening
At the bar counter
Someone orders another whiskey
I don’t charge for serving
I charge for listening
Asks for forgiveness even if it’s unforgivable
Tomorrow he’ll forget what they’re about to tell me
