Hey Bartender Lyrics by The Blues Brothers

The Definitive Collection

1978

[Verse 1: Jake]
I went balling the other night
Started drinking and got real tight
I blew each and all my friends
Felt so good I had to blow it again
[Chorus: Jake]
I said, "Hey bartender
Hey man, looka here
A draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer"
[Verse 2: Jake]
Well, I saw a chick sitting on the end
I said, "Baby, can't we be friends
You're looking sweet as you can be
Well, come on down and drink with me"
[Chorus: Jake]
I said, "Hey bartender
Hey man, looka here
Draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer"
Elwood!
[Elwood harmonica solo]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3: Jake]
Well, we was having so much fun
I didn't know it was half past one
I turned around to have one more
I looked at the clock and it was half past four
[Chorus: Jake]
"Hey bartender
Hey man, looka here
Draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer"
[Verse 4: Jake]
Well, jukebox girl is everything
All the cats began to sing
I heard somebody called and said
"Last round for alc-y-hol"
[Chorus: Jake]
I said "Hey bartender
Hey bartender
Hey bartender
Hey bartender
Draw one, two, three, four glasses of beer"
