Workin' the corner
When the record deal happened
And a week before I found out
I was sleepin' on the floor
With my new best gal
In a very, very empty house
Wrong kind of non-conformist
That's the case and always be
In a sleeping bag front of the fireplace
Your girlfriend and me
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Bar and Grill
Well I never knew me a better time
And I guess I never will
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Bar and Grill
Some say they was happy then
Me, I'm happy still
Down at the local canteen
You know the smell of fresh sawdust
When they first throw it on the floor
You hear a rockin' little rhythm
From inside the rhythm kitchen
As you're walkin' past the canteen door
120 degrees, the good times spreading like humidity
Here's what I found out
This one belongs in the books, or it oughta be
We'll do a shot as we sail out!
The authorities implored us
And it happened frequently
In a sleeping bag front of the fireplace
Your girlfriend and me
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Bar and Grill
It's a damn good story
And there's still more to tell
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Bar and Grill
You said times they ain't got better
Maybe they still will
We know all the punchlines
But we still laugh like hell
One thing never changes
Still can't afford the bill
Wrong kind of non-conformist
That's the case and always be
In a sleeping bag front of the fireplace
Your girlfriend and me
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Bar and Grill
Well I never knew me a better time
And I guess I never will
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Bar and Grill
Some say they was happy then
Me, I'm happy still
