| I know an oldtimer | |
| Just a nickel-and-dimer(1) | |
| At the bar down the Adios Lounge | |
| And for whiskey and smokes | |
| Recites poems and jokes | |
| But he's not just your average clown | |
| And he's entertaining nightly | |
| Down the Adios Lounge | |
| And he puts it politely | |
| But he does lay it down | |
| Now I lie here alone in my bed | |
| With these words running wild in my head | |
| He said... | |
| Don't let nobody go there for you | |
| Don't be satisfied with a second-hand life | |
| Don't let nobody stifle or bore you | |
| Handle your troubles or take on your strife | |
| Don't let nobody live your life for you | |
| Not your friends, not your kids, no not even your wife | |
| If you want to know where the rainbow ends | |
| It's you who´ve got to go there and find it my friend | |
| So I'm going back down | |
| To the Adios Lounge | |
| Where there's no one to wait up for me | |
| I hope he's still around | |
| Oh, that crazy old scrounge | |
| To tell us how things ought to be | |
| He said... | |
| Don't let nobody go there for you | |
| Don't be satisfied with a second-hand life | |
| Don't let nobody stifle or bore you | |
| Handle your troubles or take on your strife | |
| Don't let nobody live your life for you | |
| Not your friends, not your kids, no not even your wife | |
| If you want to know where the rainbow ends | |
| It's you who've got to go there and find it my friend | |
| So I buy him more drinks | |
| Just to hear what he thinks | |
| Oh, it's worth it to see him almost smile | |
| It's worth feeling free for a while | |
| At the bar down the Adios Lounge | |
