Verse 1

Barkeep another Mekong please. Yes of course you can keep the change.

New glass here for this new friend of mine. Forgive me I forgot your

name. Flip a coin what shall we talk about? Heads I tell the truth and

 tails I lie. Well I came all the way from Taipei today. Now Bangkok's

 pourin' rain as I'm goin' blind again and I haven't seen my girl for

fifteen thousand miles.

Chorus 1

Well is it true it's always happy hour here?

And if it is I'd like to stay a while.

Well as cliche as it may sound I'd like to raise another round.

 And if your bottle's empty help yourself to mine.

Thank you for your time. And here's to life...

Verse 2

Barkeep we need to go around again. One for me and "what's his name"

 my new best friend. So deal me in and I'll pick my cards up off the

 floor. I'll see your lucky coin and raise a pack of lies. Smile to the

 girl at the door, another four-dollar whore. But don't look her in the

 eyes she'll break your heart. We came all the way from Taipei today.

 Still Bangkok's pissin' rain and we're goin' blind again and I haven't

seen my girl for fifteen thousand miles.

Chorus 2

Well is it true it's always happy hour here?

And if it is I'd like to stay a while.

Well as cliche as it may sound I'd like to raise another round.

 And if your bottle's empty help yourself to mine.

Thank you for your time. And here's to life...
