““Just A Bar Thing” has everything you want in a country track. It’s infectious, the lyrics are flirtatious, it’s an impossible task not to tap your foot along to the beat.”
One morning last fall I woke up to see that my dad had called and left a message in the middle of the night! I immediately sat up in bed thinking the worst. I mean really, why would my dad call after midnight if it wasn't an emergency, Right?
I quickly hit "Listen" and what I heard was not my dad....
No, It was some drunk guy on the other end of the line with my dad's phone. His message went something like " Hey sweatheart, this is _____ I hear you use to live in Spokane, and I live in Spokane. You and I would make a cute couple. So we should hook up. Bye Beautiful"...
OMG, Really? I texted my dad and told him what the guy said, and then reprimanded him for "showing me off" in a bar and allowing someone to call one his phone...
His Response? "Oh honey, It's just a bar thing"....
You’re a tall drink of something I could get in trouble with
Mix you with a little rum, mmmmm, so good on my lips
Get a buzz just for fun
You can start this night off right by asking if I wanna dance
I might let you get up close enough I think you’ve got a chance
Yeah who knows, where this might go
[CHORUS]
Tonight it’s just a bar thing , Kicking back and drinking
I could see it could lead to a walk-me-to-your-car thing
Swinging on the front porch, kissing behind closed doors
I don’t see no harm in startin’
Starting just a bar thing
I can tell you ‘bout my momma and my job or my hometown
You can fast talk all you wanna I ain’t gonna slow you down
With those eyes, I’ve got time
But when Sweet Caroline comes on, it’s my party jam
Boy you better sing along,, if you want hands touching hands
Reaching out, touching you
Tonight it’s just a bar thing , Kicking back and drinking
I could see it could lead To a walk-me-to-your-car thing
Swinging on the front porch, Kissing behind closed doors
I don’t see no harm in startin’ Starting just a bar thing
Starting just a bar thing
So far it’s just a bar thing
But if you’re thinking what I’m thinking
Tonight it’s just a bar thing , kicking back and drinking….
But, I can see you and me walking to your car, then
Swinging on the front porch, kissing behind closed doors
I don’t see no harm in startin’
Starting just a bar thing
