PASSING THE BAR
Words and Music: Billie Temple/ Donna Aylor / Susie Marshall

He knew when he got his paycheck
He should have brought it home
But he stopped at the corner bar
And he drank til it was gone
His wife packed up the dog and kids
Moved to a neighbor town
Now he sits alone in their big house
Knowing he’s hit bottom ground

CHORUS
NOW HE’S PASSING THE BAR AFTER THE WHISTLE BLOWS
LIVING THE TWELVE STEPS AND SEARCHING HIS SOUL
IF ONLY SHE COULD SEE HOW HE’S COME SO FAR 
COMING HOME STONE SOBER AND PASSING THE BAR

Her lawyer needs his signature
Signed on the dotted line
All they own they’ll split in half
He’s lost it all this time
She’ll think it’s whiskey talking
If he calls her on the phone
And he knows what he’s got to do
He’s got to do alone

REPEAT CHORUS

Well I saw him just the other day
With a smile on his face
He says he’s been invited 
Over to his wife’s new place
He says it’s just for dinner
And a visit with the kids
But it’s a chance to say he’s sorry
For every thing he did

CHORUS II 
YEAH HE’S PASSING THE BAR AFTER THE WHISTLE BLOWS
LIVING THE TWELVE STEPS AND SEARCHING HIS SOUL
SHE’LL FIN’LLY GET TO SEE HOW HE’S COME SO FAR
COMING HOME STONE SOBER AND PASSING THE BAR
HE’S COMING HOME STONE SOBER AND PASSING  THE BAR
