Barstool Lament
All of my good friends
Are long dead and gone
Got me out here drinking
By myself alone
I still tell my stories
But even I’m not listening
Sorrow in all its glory
Is the main thing that old age brings
All of my good friends
I’ve helped bury along the way
With me, the last man standing
Over each and every grave
Until then I’ll hug this barstool
My lonely home away from home
Life can be based in cruelty
When lost out on the road to hope
Now all I see in front of me
Is the emptiness that I now know
Of nothing going on
With all my good friends dead and gone
