Story Behind The Song
I wrote it at a lonley time in my life. I was thinking back to when I was in college and how great it was to walk down to the corner bar "Helens" and on any given night have a drink and talk and joke around with people I knew.
Song Description
This is about my favorite corner bar where everyone knows you and you feel right at home. It is similar to place like in the show Cheers. You go there and all you want to do is laugh and forget about life for the minute.

Lyrics
verse
I arrive at my favorite spot, though it's all the same
Kinda like that show when they say "what's your name?"
Take my seat though it's all the way in the corner
It's a joke but everybody wants some more
chorus
Hey hey
We all can say, put it off another day
Hey hey
We all can say, I need a little more pay
Hey hey
We all can say, no work for me today
Hey hey,
We all can say, that girls got a pretty
verse
When I fill my cup I can start to enliven
Put two or three you see what's gonna happen
Look around and I see so many pretty people
Look around and I see so much happiness
chorus
Hey hey
We all can say, put it off another day
Hey hey
We all can say, I need a little more pay
Hey hey
We all can say, no work for me today
Hey hey,
We all can say, that girls got a pretty, face face
verse
I just want to stand up and get some attention
Excuse me everyone I do have something to say
I was sitting here trying to enjoy the weather
Something occured to me and it kind of went this way
chorus
Hey hey
We all can say, put it off another day
Hey hey
We all can say, I need a little more pay
Hey hey
We all can say, no work for me today
Hey hey,
We all can say, that girls got a pretty, face face
