Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a bad day for a sunrise
'Cause this one's coming up to a half-empty bed
Bad day for clear eyes
'Cause by sundown, they're gonna be bloodshot red
A bad day for hallway pictures
Of lovers turning into strangers
A bad day to have nothing to do
Except a whole lotta thinking of you
[Chorus]
But it's a pretty good day for the bar
Pretty sure they're gonna pour a lotta whiskey
'Cause, baby, me and this missing-you heart
Are both gonna be walking in thirsty
With a whole lotta lonely to drown
Might even buy the whole place a round
It's a bad day for good love falling apart
But it's a pretty good day for the bar
[Verse 2]
Mm, bad day for small talk
'Cause, man, she's pretty, but she damn sure ain't you
A bad day for last call
Still a ways off, but still way too soon
A bad day for the phone in my pocket
Knowing your number, knowing I can't call it
'Cause you called it over
It's a bad day for being sober
[Chorus]
But it's a pretty good day for the bar
Pretty sure they're gonna pour a lotta whiskey
'Cause, baby, me and this missing-you heart
Are both gonna be walking in thirsty
With a whole lotta lonely to drown
Might even buy the whole place a round
It's a bad day for good love falling apart
But it's a pretty good day for the bar
[PostChorus]
It's a pretty good day
[Bridge]
Bad days keep the bar in business
Heartbreak thinks a drink'll fix it
Maybe one more'll do the trick, yeah (Woah)
Bad days keep the bar in business
Heartbreak thinks a drink'll fix it
Maybe one more'll do the trick, yeah, woah
[Chorus]
It's a pretty good day for the bar
Pretty sure they're gonna pour a lotta whiskey (Pour a lotta whiskey)
'Cause, baby, me and this missing-you heart
Are both gonna be walking in thirsty
With a whole lotta lonely to drown
Might even buy the whole place a round
It's a bad day for good love falling apart
But it's a pretty good day for the bar
[Outro]
Yeah, it's a pretty good day for the bar
It's a pretty good day for
