If you've ever been drinkin' I know that you've seen her At the end of the bar all alone She knows what you're thinkin' when you try to approach her And anything you say might be wrong She's not there for company, she don't like to remember She once let herself go too far She's not there to complain, she just wants to remain The girl at the end of the bar The girl at the end of the bar Who once let herself go too far Now carries the love like a scar The girl at the end of the bar She's had so many hard knocks, she don't play the jukebox She's lived all those sad songs first hand What's made her so bitter and why love has quit her Is because she has loved the wrong man The smile she's not wearing is the sign she's not carrying And is part of her permanent scar And she's not there to complain she just wants to remain The girl at the end of the bar The girl at the end of the bar
