Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was sittin' at a bar in New England

I was thinkin' about another beer

They had a lady playin' on the piano

Yeah, it was like it never got to my ears

[Verse 2]

I said, "hey, I like how you play that piano"

She just said, "honey, what are you doin' here?"

I said, "well, I'm sittin' in a bar in New England

I was thinkin' about another beer"

[Verse 3]

She said, "don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Honey, don't I know ya?"

[Verse 4]

It was the very first time you laid eyes on me

Your mama burst in tears

And we were shakin' in the medical basement

And I guess everything was on arrears

[Verse 5]

I was starin' like a fool at the camera

Just sayin' honey, what are you doin' here?

It was the very first time I laid eyes on ya

Your mama burst in tears

[Verse 6]

I said, "don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Honey, don't I know ya?"

And don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Honey, don't I know ya?

[Verse 7]

I was sittin' at a bar in New England

I was thinkin' about another beer

They had a lady playin' on the piano

Yeah, it was like it never got to my ears

[Verse 8]

I said, "hey, I like how you play that piano"

She just said, "honey, what are you doin' here?"

I said, "well, I'm sittin' in a bar in New England

I was thinkin' about another beer"

[Verse 9]

She said, "don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Honey, don't I know ya?"

And don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Honey, don't I know ya?

And don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Honey, don't I know ya?

And don't I know ya?

Honey, don't I know ya? Said honey, don't I know ya?

Woo!

[Verse 10]

(Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya?)

(Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya?)

(Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya?)

(Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya?)

(Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya?)

(Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya? Don't I know ya?)
