Lyrics

There’s a place that we all go,
that’s not so far away.
It’s where all the old-timers come to play.
Old Joe’s at the Boxcar playing his old favorite sad songs,
telling everybody what is wrong.

So he stops, have a beer.
Plays the song that we all love to hear.
So he stops; have another beer.
Plays the song that we all love to hear.

As the time passes by, someone will ask him why,
do you sit here and drink all day and night?
He said son if you don’t know, it wasn’t that long ago
I lost the best thing that I loved in this world.

That’s why I’ll stop and have another beer,
and play the song that we all love to hear.
So I’ll stop, have another beer.
Play the song that you all love to hear.

Play the song that you all love to hear.
We are here at the Boxcar having beers.
