Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've finally found a place where I can take it
All this loneliness you've left behind
On a mountain that's no hill for a climber
Just one step up, sit back and pour the wine
[Verse 2]
I climb up on Barstool Mountain
High above your world, where there's no pain
And I'm the King of Barstool Mountain
Pretending I don't love you once again
[Verse 3]
At closing time I step down off the mountain
I'm strong enough to make it without you
I know that I'll be right back here tomorrow
Too weak to sober up and face the truth
[Verse 4]
I climb up on Barstool Mountain
High above your world, where there's no pain
And I'm the King of Barstool Mountain
Pretending I don't love you once again
[Verse 5]
I climb up on Barstool Mountain
High above the world, where there's no pain
And I'm the King of Barstool Mountain
Pretending I don't love you, drinkin' away, I love you
Pretending I don't love you once again
