Rooney's

Times were gold with new friends and old The whiskeys warm and the beers were cold Home away from home The greatest place we made our own Fresh out of college and in a band They gave us a night to give us a chance Guitars and girls and plans That's where it all began We'll always have Rooney's on a Tuesday night Those were some of the best beers of our lives When you're 22 still learning about life Just want someone to hear what you write That little Irish bar where we sang our songs Grew up with guitars we were so far gone Seen many broken hearts go get lucky again Shit a piece of my soul's still outside on the bench Heroes get remembered but legends never die We'll always have Rooney's on a Tuesday night We weren't real good but we were getting there And everyones got to start somewhere Some nights were empty chairs Some nights you couldn't get a beer 2am drunk as Dublin Laughing so hard over nothing Holding on to my friends stumbling We were on to something We'll always have Rooney's on a Tuesday night Those were some of the best beers of our lives When you're 22 still learning about life Just want someone to hear what you write That little Irish bar where we sang our songs Grew up with guitars we were so far gone Seen many broken hearts go get lucky again Shit a piece of my soul's still outside on the bench Heroes get remembered but legends never die We'll always have Rooney's on a Tuesday night Looking back I reminisce The times we had I really miss And everyone I talk to agrees Too bad they shut the doors Cuz I'd go back for just one more Beer and memory We'll always have Rooney's on a Tuesday night Those were some of the best beers of our lives When you're 22 still learning about life I'd give anything for one more night That little Irish bar where we sang our songs Grew up with guitars we were so far gone Seen many broken hearts go get lucky again Shit a piece of my soul's still outside on the bench Heroes get remembered but legends never die We'll always have Rooney's on a Tuesday night
