When the band start to play
Won't you buy me a drink and I'll tell her what I think if she gets in my way
Pre-chorus:same as 1st

It's not the same, tell me who's to blame?
And when the stars shine so bright on the cold December night
I wish that I was on the stage
Chorus:same as 1st
Oh won't you take a ride with me
Through the Barrowland history
And I'll sing you a song or two
People they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
It's only me and you
And the drink and dance and drugs you know
It's all part of the show we go to
Maybe I should tell you
That people they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
Tonight, it's only me and you

D MajorD
And when the night turns to day and the lights they fade away
C majorC
I wish that love and life would pass me by
D MajorD
And when the band stops a song because there's something going on
