Runnin, hustle just to get around
The rush of the city is gettin' me down
Stumble through the bars, find another best friend

Money, workin' at a lousy job
Enough to make a joke of what you're dreamin' of
Spend it in the bars, on another week-end.

Some folks like to think they're intimate
Until they play the fool
Some aquaintances are better
Cause they know just what to do
Everybody's always tryin' hard to be your friend
You know you can be, when you can say
Come to the party, the drinks are on me
For free, for free

Brother, tell me have you got the time
To listen to my story, listen to my life.
Stumble through the bars
You can lend me the rest
