Bartender

Américo

Bartender, pour me another drink,

Tonight I want to drink,

Tonight I want to end

With the memory of her love

Bartender, pour me another drink,

Tonight I want to drink,

Tonight I want to drown,

My sorrows, my heartbreak

Bartender, pour me another drink

I want to drown my pain in it,

I want to drown this love in it

That has hurt me so much

Pour me another, please

My heart is bleeding

I want to end this love

Pour me another, please

My heart is bleeding

I want to end this love

It’s gone, it’s gone, and I don’t know why

I don’t know with whom

Leaving me so sad and without reason

With the memory of her love

That’s why, bartender

Give me another drink

Please, give me another drink

I want to end this love

That’s why, bartender

Give me another drink

Please, give me another drink

I want to end this love

It’s gone, it’s gone, and I don’t know why

I don’t know with whom

Leaving me so sad and without reason

With the memory of her love

That’s why, bartender

Give me another drink

Please, give me another drink

I want to end this love

That’s why, bartender

Give me another drink

Please, give me another drink

I want to end this love

Bartender, please

Give me another one, please, uhu uoo
