about

I wrote this song while working in a small town with only one occasional bar of signal . ...hence the name

lyrics

every morning at sunrise
I open my eyes
in this one bar town
look for what this will teach me
where no one can reach me
in this one bar town

just when I think I'm getting closer
from getting farther away
in this one bar town

hard to get to know folks
no one laughs at my jokes
in this small little town

they all think that I'm weird
they all seem full of fear
always staring me down

after 6 months down
finally get out
from this one bar town
don't want to be mean
but there's not much I've gleaned
from this small little town
