Barroom Girls Lyrics

Gillian Welch

Oh, the night came undone like a party dress And fell at her feet in a beautiful mess The smoke and the whiskey came home in her curls And they crept through the dreams of the barroom girls
Well, she tosses and turns because the sun is unkind And the heat of the day is coming in through the blinds Leave all the blue skies for the rest of the world Because the neon will shine for the barroom girls
Ah, the barroom girls go by your side Like the ponies who pass on a carousel ride And all of the colors go around in a swirl When you dance in the arms of the barroom girls
Now she rolls to her feet when she can't sleep no more Looks at her clothes lying out on the floor Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls Are the bright morning stars of the barroom girls
Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls Are the bright morning stars of the barroom girls
