EN
I play guitar in a little bar down the street from here They pay me to come and to hum and to strum for the folks to hear But I think it's unfair when I'm sitting up there and my baby walks in And I have to play like a friend Oh, for her and him Oh, how it hurts to see her flirt with someone else And oh, how it aches to see her make a fool of herself I swear I'd leave if I didn't need th' dough, my friend It's nothing but a sin To have to play and pretend For her and him The boss man say I gotta play from nine till three They come in each night at ten, for a while, then leave That's when I play with soul and the customers know that I'm dyin' within 'Cause I know where they've been And where they're goin' again Just her and him
