Whiskey & Gin

Hey
 Hey
 Hey
 Yeah
 In the back room of the bar, crusty fingernails I saw him
 Everything was hidden by all the greasy hair he was in
 Never looking up, he seemed so sad, I tried to offer him
 My shot of whiskey, but he said I only drink gin
 We sat there quietly, purposely ignoring the room
 He smiled wistfully, his shirt was dirty and torn
 Everlasting glances left open-ended chances
 But he stole my heart when he ordered a double for me
 In the back room of the bar, in the back room of the bar
 We made a great couple, me and him
 'Cause I drink whiskey, but he only ever drinks gin
 Well, that's the way it is with him
 Hey
 Hey
 Hey
 Yeah
 Went to the ladies room, when I returned to my chair
 His hands were in my bag, red-handed guilt everywhere
 Took out a photo of an old Romeo
 Threw it over his shoulder, and rested his hand on my knee
 We played these games where we go through the whole alphabet
 He'd have an Adam and Eve, and I had a Dixie Julep
 Went through an Artillery, Caruso and a Diamond Fizz
 Fallen Angel, Green Dragon, ending with a kiss in the dark
 In the back room of the bar
 In the back room of the bar
 We made a great couple, me and him
 'Cause I drink whiskey, but he only ever drinks gin

 Last call came right at once, glasses were empty and dry
 We got our second wind, but all we had was a dime
 Didn't even seem to care, the bartender unaware
 We jumped over the counter, took off with our hands full of booze
 In the back room of the bar
 In the back room of the bar
 We made a great couple, me and him
 'Cause I drink whiskey, but he only ever drinks
 In the back room of the bar
 In the back room of the bar
 We made a great couple, me and him
 'Cause I drink whiskey, but he only ever drinks gin, he only drinks gin
