[Verse 1] We got winners, we got losers Chain smokers and boozers And we got yuppies, we got bikers We got thirsty hitchhikers And the girls next door dress up like movie stars
[Verse 2] We got cowboys, we got truckers Broken-hearted fools and suckers And we got hustlers, we got fighters Early birds and all-nighters And the veterans talk about their battle scars
[Hook] Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
[Chorus 1] I love this bar It's my kind of place Just walkin' through the front door Puts a big smile on my face It ain't too far, come as you are
[Hook] Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
[Verse 3] I've seen short skirts, we got high-techs Blue-collar boys and rednecks And we got lovers, lots of lookers And I've even seen dancing girls and hookers And we like to drink our beer from a mason jar
[Hook] Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar Yes I do
[Instrumental Break] 2:34 - 2:51
[Bridge] I like my truck (I like my truck) I like my girlfriend (I like my girlfriend) I like to take her out to dinner I like a movie now and then
[Chorus] But I love this bar It's my kind of place Just trollin' around the dance floor Puts a big smile on my face No cover charge, come as you are
[Hook] Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar Hmm, hmm, hmm I just love this 'ol bar
[Verse 4: Omitted from Single Version] We got divorcees and a big bouncer man An old jukebox and a real bad band We got waitresses and we got barflies A dumb-ass and a wise-guy If you get too drunk just sleep out in your car
[Hook: Omitted from Single Version] Reason number 672 why Hmm, hmm, hmm I just love this bar
[Outro: Omitted from Single Version] Play it on out boys Beer-thirty's over Got to take it on home Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar I just love it
