lyrics

I'm playing in a city bar tonight
I'm playing all the usual shite
learned evey song by that band your uncle love
and though folk'l chitter chatter I don't mind
That's just the nature of the ride
got to give 'em what the like
Or more or less

And I'll turn the amplifier to the roof
but you won't hear me from your hoose
I'm not on TV, I'm in the toon
so it's really up to you
you can catch a real boy
strumming along to his real life pain
But i won't be here every day

I'm playing in your local bar tonight
That's 40 miles I'm gonna drive
and I know you've got a million things to do and so little time
But if you could spare an hour for a pint
I swear I'll play something you like
And I'll get paid and I will live another day
