The Girl at the End of the Bar - John Anderson

If you’ve ever been drinkin' I know that you’ve seen her

At the end of the bar all alone

She knows what you’re thinkin' when you try to approach her

And anything you say might be wrong

She’s not there for company, she don’t like to remember

She once let herself go too far

She’s not there to complain, she just wants to remain

The girl at the end of the bar

The girl at the end of the bar

Who once let herself go too far

Now carries the love like a scar

The girl at the end of the bar

She’s had so many hard knocks, she don’t play the jukebox

She’s lived all those sad songs first hand

What’s made her so bitter and why love has quit her

Is because she has loved the wrong man

The smile she’s not wearing is the sign she’s not carrying

And is part of her permanent scar

And she’s not there to complain she just wants to remain

The girl at the end of the bar

The girl at the end of the bar
