With an empty glass
And a last cigarette
It's closin' time

And I'm drunk again
But somehow I'll make it home
I'll cry myself to sleep

Ya that's the way the day ends, every night for me

Every night I'm in some bar,

I'm throwin' whiskey on a heart that's on fire
Forgettin' you ain't no easy thing
And each night for me ends up the same


With an empty glass
And a last cigarette

It's closing time
And I'm drunk again
But somehow I'll make it home

I'll cry myself to sleep
Ya that's the way the day ends, every night for me


Every night, I'm in this bar
I'm throwin' whiskey on a heart that's on fire
Forgettin' you ain't no easy thing

And each night for me ends up the same

With an empty glass

And a last cigarette
It's closin' time
And I'm drunk again

But somehow I'll make it home,
I'll cry myself to sleep
But that's the way the day ends every night for me

Eh that's the way the day ends, every night for me
