Somewhere over the Rainbow Bar and Grill - David Lee Roth

Workin' the corners

When the record deal happened

And the week before I found out

I was sleepin' on the floor

With my new best gal

In a very very empty house

Wrong kind of non-conformist

That’s the case and always be

In a sleeping bag front of the fireplace

My girlfriend and me

Somewhere over the rainbow bar and grill

Well I never knew me a better time

And I guess I’ll never will

Somewhere over the rainbow bar and grill

Some say they was happy then

Me, I’m happy still

Down at the local canteen

You know the smell of fresh sawdust

When they first throw it on the floor

You hear a rockin' little rhythm

From inside the rhythm kitchen

As you’re walkin' past the canteen door

120 degrees, the good times spreading like humanity

And here’s what I found out

This one belongs in the book or it oughta be

We’ll do a shot as we sail out

The authority’s implored us

And it happened frequently

In a sleeping bad front of the fireplace

Your girlfriend and me

Somewhere over the rainbow bar and grill

It’s a damn good story

And there’s still more to tell

Somewhere over the rainbow bar and grill

You say times they ain’t got better

Maybe they still will

We know all the punchlines

But we still laugh like hell

One thing never changes

Still can’t afford the bill

Wrong kind of non-conformist

That’s the case and always be

In a sleeping bag front of the fireplace

Your girlfriend and me

Somewhere over the rainbow bar and grill

Well I never knew me a better time

And I guess I’ll never will

Somewhere over the rainbow bar and grill

Some say they was happy then

Me, I’m happy still
