Lyrics

Brady was a baseball star 'Til he struck out and took his car and drove away Sissy lost her little boy Hitch-hiked up to Illinois, so they say Then it rained so hard that Mary tried To take her life with suicide And disappear just like the thunder You ask around and no-one knows Where they went or what they do But you wonder, I know you wonder Where do they go? They come here To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer They’re in need of a mind-bender I’m a bartender At the end of the day I’m all they’ve got Hope on the rocks Charlie’s wife filed for divorce And Charlie bought a quarter-horse and now he's riding fence Upside down and couldn’t pay They hauled Sue's mobile home away And we ain’t seen her since Larry’s long time fiancé Got kicked out of the P.T.A. And moved her kids back east with someone else And all the ones you used to know Don’t drop in or say hello But you ask yourself I know you ask yourself Where do they go? They come here To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer They’re in need of a mind-bender I’m a bartender At the end of the day I’m all they’ve got Hope on the rocks Where do they go? They come here To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer They’re in need of a mind-bender I’m a bartender At the end of the day I’m all they’ve got Hope on the rocks, oh oh oh yeah
