about

Old, old song which has made a comeback as a drunken sing-a-long end of the night tune. You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

lyrics

It's so late and I don't have a car
Oh so late and home is oh so far
Now I will sit here underneath this bridge
I'll watch the trains go by
Just me and my foolish pride

I would hate to bore you with my tale
But since it's late and since you're in no state
To refuse, I'll bend your drunken ear
I'll buy you one more beer
Just me and my foolish pride

Oh but home is not as far as it seems
Home is never as far as it seems.

I only have one sorry tale to tell
If I tell it over and over, I might tell it well
Now I will sit here underneath this bridge
I'll watch the sun rise high
Just me and my foolish pride

Oh but home, etc.
