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 corn field needs rain (yeah)
Every pickup truck needs gas
Every cane pole needs bait
Every cowboy needs a hat
When the work weeks been long
But it all just paid off
And it's Friday at 5:01
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
Now, everybody needs a bar
I need a bar where I can shoot some pool
Make a bet, bum another cigarette
Make a bug, say, "Next rounds on me"
I need a bar that I can cut a rug
Let it loose, kiss my girl in a corner booth
And do it all again next week (let's go)
Everybody needs a bar
A spot that they can go (yeah)
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
Now, 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 watering hole
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 (oh you can catch a buzz)
Maybe even fall in love (can even fall in love)
It don't matter who you are (it don't matter who you are)
Everybody needs a bar (everybody needs a bar)
