Tekst Piosenek » O » Owen Temple » The wanna wanna bar

A seagull cry a child laughs an old man orders a drink
It’s been ten years since he got here and it hurts to think
That years ago at this beachside bar a woman held his hand
And he lost his chance for true romance on South Padre Island

Well the woman’s name was Mary Ann and Gary loved her so
He said be my wife for the rest of your life and she said no
Well old Gary he was from Indiana all his life a travellin’ man
He had a dog and a boat and he would float and fish around that old island

He’s stuck at Wanna Wanna the beachfront bar sippin’ on a coke and rum
The tide rolls in his dreams die out waitin’ on a love that won’t come
True love never will come

Years ago in California Gary loved a girl named Sue
She and three more wives told him lies when they said I do
And this last one took the money and the things Cary cared about
She took the dog and the boat now he can’t float cause she walked out

Gary looks out at the Gulf and he squints his eyes
Thinkin’ again of what might have been without them hard goodbyes
But Gary’s got lots of stories about people and places he’s been
“Yeah I’ve had a few of them good times too” he said with a grin

And Gary’s still down there on Padre a little sad but he’s alright
If you head this way on some Sunday he’ll drink with you all night
