lyrics

They're closing down Jim Storhoi's bar
Taking the trophies from the wall
To build a new parking garage
And another vacant shopping mall

He opened her up in '45
When he came home from the war
He's lived above her ever since
Now they're making room for an outlet store

Hey Jimmy, pour me another one
Whoa Jimmy, pour me another one
Hey Jimmy, pour me another one
I ain't driving this time, I'm stumbling home

Where will all the lonely soldiers go
To recite their oath and defend the flag
They're kicking 'em out into the snow
Personal effects in a body bag

Hey Jimmy, pour me another one
Whoa Jimmy, pour me another one
Hey Jimmy, pour me another one
Make it a double this time, I'm stumbling home

Let's all raise a glass to all our lovers past
Knowing nothing lasts like port and a good cigar
Let's all say a toast to the barkeep with the most
And the final ghost who haunts Jim Storhoi's bar

The government ain't got no right
To Jimmy's land and Jimmy's claim
But he's too tired for a fight
Well, then fuck their eminent domain
