Refreshments, The Lyrics

Mekong Lyrics
Barkeep, another Mekong please
Yes of course you can keep the change
A new glass here for this new friend of mine
Forgive me I forgot your name
Flip a coin, what shall we talk about
Heads I'll tell the truth and tails I lie

I came all the way from Taipei today
Now Bangkok's pourin' rain and I'm going back again
and I haven't seen my girl, for fifteen thousand miles

Chorus
Well is it true it's always happy hour here?
And if it is, I'd like to stay awhile
As cliche'd as it may sound, I'd like to raise another round
And if your bottles empty help yourself to mine
Thank you for your time, and here's to life

Barkeep, we need to go around again
One for me and what's his name, my new best friend
so deal me in and I'll pick my cards up off the floor
I'll see your lucky coin and raise a pack of lies
Don't smile to the girl at the door, another 4 dollar whore
don't look her in the eye, she'll break your heart

We came all the way from Taipei today
Still Bangkok's pissin' rain and we're goin' back again
and I haven't seen my girl, for fifteen thousand miles

Chorus repeat
