Through the floor

CUSTOM

[Intro: Saloon Piano] [Male Vocal] Pour another, pour another Nobody's counting, pour another [Verse 1: Male Vocal] Payday in my pocket, rain coming sideways Burnside to the river, hitting every doorway Third bar, fourth bar, lost my count Ended up somewhere I never heard about [Verse 2: Female Vocal, Sultry] Come in out the rain, honey, shake off the cold Pull up a stool now, you look like you're owed I'll dance on the counter, I'll pour you the best Lean in a little, let the floor do the rest [Pre-Chorus] [Male Vocal] Every glass she slid me, she was watching the floor [Female Vocal] Drink up, darling [Male Vocal] Every time I swallowed, she was watching the door [Female Vocal] One more, darling [Female Whisper] Knock twice on the counter [Two Knocks] [Male Vocal] Something knocked back from below [Chorus: Male and Female Vocals] Down through the floor! Down through the floor! Last call in Old Town, you don't drink no more Wake up rocking with the shore gone black Haul the line or go over the back! [Verse 3: Male Vocal, Shouted, Staccato] Hinge cried! Floor gave! Dropped like a sack in a basement grave! Hands in the dark! Rope on the wrist! Somebody reading me off of a list! Dragged through the tunnel, heels in the mud Heard her heels up above, still dancing on the wood [Verse 4: Female Vocal, Cold] Sweep up the sawdust, straighten the stool Three dollars a sailor, and he played the fool Wipe off the glass where his lips used to be Light in the window for the next one to see [Pre-Chorus] [Male Vocal] Every glass she slid me, she was watching the floor [Female Vocal] Drink up, darling [Male Vocal] Every time I swallowed, she was watching the door [Female Vocal] One more, darling [Female Whisper] Knock twice on the counter [Two Knocks] [Male Vocal] Something knocked back from below [Chorus: Male and Female Vocals] Down through the floor! Down through the floor! Last call in Old Town, you don't drink no more Wake up rocking with the shore gone black Haul the line or go over the back! [Bridge: Half-Time] [Male Vocal] Captain counts the money [Female Vocal] Counts the money [Male Vocal] Crimp counts the men [Female Vocal] Counts the men [Male Vocal] Nobody counts the ones That don't come home again [Verse 5: Male Vocal] Salt in my mouth and my name on a page Signed in a hand that I never made Mate says haul it, or the gray takes you down Portland's just a rumor now, a light I can't find [Final Chorus: Double-Time, Male and Female Vocals] Down through the floor! Down through the floor! Last call in Old Town, you don't drink no more Wake up rocking with the shore gone black Haul the line or go over the back! Haul the line or go over the back! [Outro: Female Vocal, Saloon Piano] Come in out the rain, honey Pour another, pour another Nobody's counting, pour [Abrupt End]
