Lyrics
The beer in my bottle makes my throat all wet
but i keep dumping it down no i don't forget
i remember your name, yeah it was Lori
You sat right next to me, girl, no i wasn't sorry
You launched right into conversation
I didn't have to say nothing
You swigged on your beer, baby
you were really something
I looked at your hair while you were talking to me
i looked at your face how could this possibly be
the bartender liked me so she kept us drinking
While i was falling in love, baby now, that's what I was thinking
You launched right into conversation
I didn't have to say nothing
You bought me a beer baby
You were really something
Lori, Lori
I'm so glad you found me
Lori, Lori
now you're next to me
Now I miss that girl that was a part of me
and I call her up sometimes but she won't see me
i guess it's one of those things
that's fair in sex and war
'cause nothing ever is like it was before
And I sit at the bar and drink my beer
Looking right at the next bar stool
but she's not there
Lori, Lori
wish you were here with me
Lori, Lori
where can you be?
i looked at your hair while you were talking to me
I looked at your face how could this possibly be
The bartender liked me so she kept us drinking
While I was falling in love, baby now, that's what I was thinking
You launched right into conversation
I didn't have to say nothing
You bought me a beer baby
You were really something
Lori, Lori
I'm so glad you found me
Lori, Lori
Now you're next ot me
Now I miss that girl that was a part of me
and I call her up sometimes but she won't see me
I guess it's one of those things
that's fair in sex and war
'cause nothin ever is like it was before
