Hey, Mister Bartender
Please don't be so slow
I got time for one more round
And a six-pack to go

Tomorrow mornin's Sunday
I'm gonna be feelin' low
So please, please Bartender
I want a six-pack to go

I've been a-drinkin' all day long
Takin' in the town
I've done spent my whole paycheck
Just-a honky-tonkin' round

I don't have enough to pay my rent
I ain't gonna worry though
I got time for one more round
And a six-pack to go

(Instrumental Break)

Hey, Mister Bartender
Please don't be so slow
I got time for one more round
And a six-pack to go

Tomorrow mornin's Sunday
I'm gonna be feeling low
So please, please Bartender
I want a six-pack to go

I've been a-drinkin' all day long
Takin' in the town
I've done spent my whole paycheck
Just-a honky-tonkin' round

Well, I don't have enough to pay my rent
I ain't gonna worry though
I got time for one more round
And a six-pack to go

One six-pack to go

HANK:

And a six pack to go

GEORGE:
Hey, hey mister bartender

And a six pack to go

Tomorrow mornin's Sunday
I'm gonna be feelin' low
So, please please bartender
Ii wanna six pack to go

I've been drinkin' all day long
Taking in the town
I've done spent my whole paycheck
Just-a honky-tonkin' round

Well I dont have enough to pay my rent

I've got time for one more round
And a six pack to go

BOTH:

Takin' in the town
We've done spent our whole paycheck
Just-a honky-tonkin' round

Well we dont have enough to pay our rent
But we aint gonna worry though
We've got time for one more round
And a six pack to go
