Last Call

words & music by Nate Shelkey

The crowd’s thinning out
or is it just me?
Your prospects grow slim
And it’s time to leave

But wait a second man
Who’s that pretty girl there?
So you gather up your nerve
Maybe there’s a cab to share

And it’s just fine
And I don’t mind
If you’re just tryin’
To stick around

Baby, we’re goin’ home

They’re putting up the chairs
Gathering up the drinks
Picking up the drunks
And kicking out me

So I step to the stoop
Pull the collar on my coat
Put my head in my hat
And smile while I smoke

‘Cause it’s just fine
and I don’t mind
If you’re just tryin’
To stick around

Baby, we’re goin’ home

Here we are crawling up the street
The bars are closing up
And the lights shining on me

My head’s started aching
‘Cause it’s quarter till three
I should have been home now
But all our drinks were free

But it’s just fine
And I don’t mind
If you’re just tryin’
To stick around

Baby, we’re goin’ home
