Hey Bartender

(v1)
Hey bartender bring me a beer
Bring it right on over here
I need to drowned this pain
It keeps messing with my brain

(v2)
I keep seeing her pretty face
But I’ve given up on the chase
And I’ve come right here
Hey bartender give me a beer

(chorus)
Now if you see my face kissing the bar
And you think I’ve gone too far
Well you’d be wrong
The night is long
Let me make this clear
Hey bartender I need a beer

(v3)
She was the best thing I ever had
But love sometimes can go bad
She kicked me out on the street
Call me a liar call me a cheat

(v4)
Now if I end up kissing the floor
You’ll know I don’t need anymore
But till we get to then
Hey bartender, just keep em coming

(chorus)

Good job on the song guys and it's a good mix too. The drums are mixed really well in this tune.

Good to see this one finished. It rocks nicely.

Thoroughly enjoyed being part of this song.

Story of my life! Really enjoyed this guys. 

[DrumGuy]

Really enjoyed being a part of this!  Great performances by everyone and wrapped up with a powerful mix by Mark! 

Mark

[r4m]

Great Job all! Reminds me of Bad Company. Mix sounds great also!

[Paulo]

Nice rocker, love it...

Nice reverb on the snare, reminds me of the Lexicon and AMS RMS16,  reverb units, widely used in the 80's

George sounds like Coverdale when hiting the high pitch notes.

[rightonthemark]

thanks everyone for the kind words.
and a special thanks for those who participated in making this tune happen.

and Paulo i used the 80s snare preset from this on the snare.

i just love it --- i am an 80s kind of rocker.
