When I have a couple drinks I lose my head and try to fight
I can whip in some old honky tonk or bar night after night
Since my baby's gone and left me I'm the meanest man around
I've been barred from every honky tonk in town
I'm the life of every party but it's a gonna be the d**h of me
I'm a fighter but a loser that's how I was born to be
Since my baby's gone and left me I've been beaten to the groung
I've been barred from every honky tonk in town
( piano )
Think I'll build myself a honky tonk at home down in the den
If I stay away from people I'll stay out of trouble then
Lately I'm just not the kind of guy folks like to have around
I've been barred from every honky tonk in town
I'm the life of every party...
I've been barred from every honky tonk in town
