"Sobering Up" lyrics

Sobering Up

Well, the good bartender just sang out
His all familiar line
"Let's call for alcohol
It's just about closing time"
Our night is almost over
But don't be too abrupt
Let's order us all another round
We run the risk of sobering up

Let's get everybody doubles
Set them up once again
We've almost sort our troubles
And we just can't let it end
Well, I know my woman's waiting
Gonna squeal like a spotted pup
But let's order us all another round
We run the risk of sobering up

It would be a shame to lose this buzz
When our bell has not been rung
That's lots of lies we haven't told
And songs we haven't sung
Let's not think about quitting
Till we see the bottom of the cup
Let's order us all another round
We run the risk of sobering up

So keep the good times flowing
Let's all joy it swings
Let's keep this party going
Till the big fat lady sings
So let's stop think about tomorrow
Cause our fun it might disrupt
Just order us all another round
We run the risk of sobering up

Let's order us all another round
We run the risk of sobering up
