Blame it on Ginger (and bourbon)
by Merisan

The Casanova Bar is just a few blocks away
and you and I could spend a little time
let’s go down and waste some of our hard earned bills
Cause I bet the drinks are strong tonight

But you’ve got something else behind your smile
Let’s have another round and stay a while.

Blame it on ginger, a few rocks and bourbon
Blame it on the song that was playing on the jukebox
If there’s a reason, then please explain it.
Why do I lay my heart out on the line
The “last call”bell rings out his chime
Let me know if it’s for you this time

I’m so tired of behaving like a good girl
Even martyrs must have gotten their kicks now and then
What’s so wrong with hoping for another chance
to figure out what love feels like again

You’ve let me dry my tears upon your sturdy shoulder
I think we’ll settle this before the night is over

Blame it on ginger, a few rocks and bourbon
Blame it on the song that was playing on the jukebox
If there’s a reason, then please explain it.
Why do I lay my heart out on the line
The “last call”bell rings out his chime
Please let me know if it’s for you this time
