My dad already gave me many a good tip
_____
Like: 'My boy, never give up
_____
Do a good deed now and then
_____
Trust yourself and make yourself a home'
_____
Be kind to the ladies and don't catch anything
_____
And party into the night now and then
_____
Make mistakes if you want and learn from them every day
But let one thing be said
_____
Never, never, never, never ever fall in love
_____
With the girl behind the counter
_____
Never, never, never, never ever fall in love
_____
With the girl behind the bar
_____
No matter how pretty she is
_____
No matter how thirsty you are
_____
It's her job to like you
_____
Even if she buys you a drink, she goes home alone
_____
Kid, one thing must be said
_____
Never, never, never fall in love with the girl behind the bar'
_____
That's what my dad once said and it hit me
_____
When I went to my first pub
_____
And, smiling, at the bar
_____
I hung on her lips and the tap
_____
How she poured the beer from the keg into my cup
_____
That was pure beauty and I decided
_____
Nowhere in the world could it be nicer
_____
And too late I remembered
_____
'Never, never, never, never ever fall in love
_____
With the girl behind the counter
_____
Never, never, never, never ever fall in love
_____
With the girl behind the bar
_____
No matter how pretty she is
_____
No matter how thirsty you are
_____
It's her job to like you
_____
Even if she buys you a drink, she goes home alone
_____
Kid, one thing must be said
_____
Never, never, never fall in love with the girl behind the bar'
_____
Since then it's happened to me a thousand times
_____
I got turned down and she took my cash
_____
And if I ever have a boy and I'm a dad myself
_____
I'll drum into him
_____
'Never, never, never, never ever fall in love
_____
With the girl behind the counter
_____
Never, never, never, never ever fall in love
_____
With the girl behind the bar
_____
No matter how pretty she is
_____
No matter how thirsty you are
_____
It's her job to like you
_____
Even if she buys you a drink, she goes home alone
_____
Kid, one thing must be said
_____
Never, never, never fall in love with the girl
_____
Never, never, never fall in love with the girl behind the bar'
