Cocktails For Three Lyrics - Singles - Terry Allen

Cocktails for three 

Oh, it's gettin' to me 

Yeah, passin' afternoons 

Sittin' in these cocktail rooms 

Yeah, from nine to five, I'm in the pink 

'Cause after work we go for a drink 

But he shows up every time just as I clink 

Your daiquiri to mine, ohh 

Cocktails for three 

It's not natural to me 

Hey, not for me and you 

Should be cocktails for two 

Just sittin' here with that fellow and you 

Tryin hard to act mellow when I'm blue 

Ahhh whoo-whoo 

Cocktails for three 

It's too kinky for me 

Best let it go and be done 

Just stick to cocktails for one 

Now he's just another lonely business man 

Sittin' in a lonely business land 

His story is on every jukebox 

And his life like his drinkin' is on the rocks 

Yeah, his life like his drinkin' is on the rocks
