Beer Drinker Blues

I went down to my local bar for a beer, but all the taps had run dry
I went down to my corner bar for a beer, but all the taps had run dry
You know I was so thirsty, I just wanted to sit down and cry

So I tried to chat up the barmaid, but she was kind of shy
I tried to talk to the barmaid but she was really shy
I couldn't make any progress no matter how hard I tried

Well I guess there's no use to stay here, so I'll move on down the road
No use hanging 'round here, so I'll move on down the road
Maybe at the next place, a man can lighten his load
