Here Comes A Regular - The Replacements

Well a person can work up a mean, mean thirst

After a hard day of nothin' much at all

Summer’s passed, it’s too late to cut the grass

There ain’t much shit to rake now in the fall

Sometimes I just ain’t in the mood

To take my place in back with the loudmouths

Like a picture on the fridge that’s never stocked with food

I used to live at home, now I stay at your house

Everybody wants to be special here

They call your name out, never fear

Here comes a regular

Call out your name

Here comes a regular

Am I the only one here today?

Well, a drinkin' buddy bound to another town

Once the police made you go away

And even if you’re in the arms of someone’s baby now

I’ll drink a great big whiskey to ya anyway

And everybody wants to be someone’s here

Someone’s gonna show up, never fear

Here comes a regular

Call out your name

And here comes a regular

Am I the only one that feels ashamed?

First the lights, then the collar goes up, the wind begins to blow

You turn your back on a pay-em-back, last call

First the glass, then the leaves, then the snow

Ain’t much raking anyway in the fall

Here comes…
