Here Tonight Lyrics by Banditos
She struck a match and all the air was sucked out
Before she took a drag already startin to shout
She said, “baby, I’ve been scrapin by since before you could even spell struggle”
I just nodded my head and ordered her a double
Slipped the last of his cash in the music machine
Flashin sex shop ads like they were articles in Newsweek magazine
He played six George Jones songs and sat back down to his cheap whiskey
Then he thought about his kids and wondered “Do they even miss me?”
Life is a drag and then you die
Sometimes, baby, you gotta get high
“There ain’t no mountain too rugged to climb”
Live for today because you’re here tonight
He played five sad songs, then the last in line
“Take Me” struck a chord in her mind
She said, “I haven’t heard this one since I was a girl back in 1969”
He wiped a tear from her face and she made eyes
Life is a drag and then you die
Sometimes, baby, you gotta get high
“There ain’t no mountain too rugged to climb”
Live for today because you’re here tonight
