Kevin Fowler – The Bouncer lyrics
I was out drinkin' with my buddies
Right after work, boots still muddy
Did a shot then we shot the breeze
Shot some pool, like we always do

Everybody buyin' everybody rounds
I didn't wanna be rude and turn 'em down
Buzz on after two or three, or maybe three or four
Didn't count no more 'cuz
I was just there to drink
I was just minding my own business
Can I get a witness
I was just partyin on
Swear I wasn't doin nothin wrong
Just kissed a waitress on the mouth
Then the big bad bouncer threw me out
Said he played defensive line
For Mississippi back in 1999
He didn't seem that scared of me
When I showed a few, of my karaté moves (hi-ya)
I'm not sure how far I traveled
Just know I landed face first in the gravel
Got up and kicked him in the pork-n-beans
Dusted off and then, I ran right back in 'cuz
I was just there to drink
I was just minding my own business
Can I get a witness
I was just partyin on, climbed up on the bar to sing my song
Jumped off and surfed across the crowd
Then the big bad bouncer threw me out
I was just there to drink
I was just minding my own business
Can I get a witness
I was just partyin on
Swear I wasn't doin nothin wrong
Just kissed another waitress on the mouth
Jumped off the bar, surfed across crowd
If I wadn't busy drinkin' woulda taken him down
But the big bad bouncer threw me out
"He better be glad I was in a good mood"
"Yeah I'll let it slide this time"

Then the big bad bouncer threw me out
