Man, I can remember the first time I heard the term half pint.
I had an uncle that would always keep a half a pint of whiskey in his back pocket.
But [Am] that memory came back a few nights [A] ago.
I was hanging [F#m] out [D] in a club in small,
[A] sitting tonight in small like boats.
Everybody in the place had their own bottle.
It was some woman's birthday, so I pinned on her a [B] dollar.
[A] Said it's half pint, half pint, half pint night tonight.
Oh yeah.
Said it's half pint, half pint, half pint night tonight.
That's what it is up in here tonight, y'all.
Devil egg and sandwiches [D] on the birthday ladies' trays.
[A] The dance floor was packed on every song they played.
At about midnight, it was one full ball.
Everybody in the play screen when the DJ played, holding [B] the wall.
So I asked the waitress, what's the [C#m] special in here tonight?
