Story Behind the Song
This one goes out to all of the musicians/artists
out there playing the clubs. We might think we're
'expressing' ourselves, but really, we're here to
sell beer. This is based on a true story. NYC bands
try to guess the booker's name (hint, it rhymes
with 'blowin').
Lyrics
Well I stayed up all night
writing something new
Just so I'd have something to play
Now I learned the words
Taught the band the tune
but it didn't matter anyway
'Cause unless you spend
It'll be the end of me
working in this place
So buy more alcohol
and drink it all
Or I'll be gone without a trace
Cause I'm here
To Sell You Beer
That's right I'm here
To Sell You Beer
Go to the bar, get the waitress
tell her to hurry, tip her big
I'm tellin' everybody
Spend your money
Oh yeah...maybe check out my gig
I'm here
To Sell You Beer
That's right I'm here
To Sell You Beer
Drinkings important so drink
I can't play if those
cash registers don't chink
Couple of weeks ago, I did a show
It was a rippin' affair
Everybody screamed, I felt redeemed
A whole ton of people were there
But I felt like a hooker
when I called back the booker
to Beg for another show
He said "Joe, one thing I know,
If no one's drinking when your playing
You've gotta go, you gotta go
you gotta go"
But I'm here
To sell You Beer
I said I'm here
To sell you beer
I'm here here here
To sell you beer beer beer
That's right I'm here
I'm here I'm here here here
I'm here I'm here
