Lyrics


Allie-Girl (Corner Pocket) (03/07/07)



Verse
In an old neighborhood tavern haunt
Smelling of last nights beer
Peanut shells scattered ?cross the floor
Men?s eyes turn towards the door

Verse
Pool stick case carried in her hand,
She?s headed for the green
Perfume follows her every step
They wonder if she?s a dream

Chorus
And they use to call her Allie-Girl
Fiery eyes and soft brown curls
In the dim light she lit up their pool hall world
Yeah, they remember Allie-Girl

Verse
Bartender returns with a kitchen smell
Heads turn as her name he yells
Hey Allie, how long has it been
Haven?t seen you since I don?t know when

Verse
Sorry to hear about your loss
You father and you always won the toss
He left behind a part of him
Rack ?em up and let?s do it again

(Repeat Chorus)

Verse
Eight ball in the corner pocket
He taught her how to play her life this way
He said it?s all gonna come your way
Hold your head high take it day by day

Verse
Now she?s a woman, stands on her own
Playing here to bring him home
Came in today to feel him near
Among the peanuts and last nights beer

(Repeat Chorus)

Yeah, they remember Allie-Girl
