Yeah, everybody needs a bar, a spot that they can go
A band they wanna hear and a beer they wanna hold
A dart that they can throw, some shit that they can shoot
Everybody's got a friend when you sittin' on a stool
Every cornfield needs rain (Yeah)
Every pickup truck needs gas
Every cane pole needs bait
Every cowboy needs a hat
When the workweek's been long
But it all just paid off
And it's Friday at 5:01
Yeah, everybody needs a bar
A spot that they can go
A band they wanna hear and a beer they wanna hold
A dart that they can throw
Some shit that they can shoot
Everybody's got a friend when you sittin' on a stool
Where you can catch a buzz
Maybe even fall in love
It don't matter who you are, no (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Everybody needs a bar
I need a bar that I can shoot some pool, make a bet
Bum another cigarette
Make a bud, say, "Next round's on me"
I need a bar that I can cut a rug, let it loose
Kiss my girl in the corner booth
And do it all again next week (Let's go)
Yeah, everybody needs a bar (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Everybody's got a friend when you sittin' on a stool
Where you can catch a buzz
Maybe even fall in love
It don't matter who you are, no (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Everybody needs a bar (That's right)
It's like home sweet home when you've been gone
They say, "It ain't the same without you"
They know your name, they know your drink
And a little too much about you
Everybody needs a bar, hm
Aw, yeah, a little local waterin' hole
Yeah, everybody needs a bar (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
A spot that they can go (Yeah)
