It ain't the stories that
Old jukebox tells
It ain't callin' shots
Over eight ball felt
Ain't how the neon shines
Through this smoke filled room
Ain't hard to understand
What keeps me on this stool
It just ain't close enough
To closin' time for me to leave this bar
And our love behind
I know I'll close my tab with you off my mind
It just ain't close enough to closin' time
It takes half a day
And half a night
To make half a man
Feel half alright
And when I hear last call
I'll get to leave this place
Oh but as it sits
I still see your face
It just ain't close enough
To closin' time for me to leave this bar
And our love behind
I know I'll close my tab with you off my mind
It just ain't close enough to closin' time
BRIDGE
Ohhhhhh
It just ain't close enough
To closin' time for me to leave this bar
And our love behind
I know I'll close my tab with you off my mind
It just ain't close enough to closin' time
It ain't the stories that
Old jukebox tells
It ain't calling shots
Over eight ball felt
