You may wonder why I come here to this same bar all the time Sit down and order the same drink to ease my mind Then walk over to the jukebox and play the same old song This is where the heartache from the same old girl belongs It's the same old girl that puts me in this old familiar place And I'm afraid that my condition is becoming a disgrace Oh, I find myself here drinking till my heads all in a whirl Once again I'm trying to forget the same old girl When the cab shows up I realize I've gone too far again The bartender takes my drink and says, "That's all, my friend" I'm no longer the same man I was when she was by my side But she is still the same old girl who tears me up inside It's the same old girl that puts me in this old familiar place And I'm afraid that my condition is becoming a disgrace Oh, I find myself here drinking till my heads all in a whirl Once again I'm trying to forget the same old girl And once again I'm trying to forget the same old girl
