about

The Blue Dragon was a bar in a private in my home town. As you can hear, it made quite an impression on me when I went there some years ago. It's been demolished now.

lyrics

There’s a place to go when you’re feeling low and life has brought you down
It’s an old hotel with a musty smell over on the edge of town
Just go and take a seat your blues will be complete though the colour scheme is brown
Down in the bar it’s the best place by far to claim your lonely crown

Drinking beer you ain’t lonely here and you don’t even speak
Cos there’s others there whose souls are bear, but please don’t think they're weak
There’s a band that plays in a country way and they think they’re unique
They won’t let you jam cos they’re the big I AM and you are just a freak

Go to The Blue Dragon, when you need a home
Cos at The Blue Dragon, you can be alone
And at The Blue Dragon, everyone’s the same
They have been hurt by love and need a gentle shove
To learn to live life with the pain

So you’ve been there now and you take a bow, you’re out there in the cold
If and if you want to stay this is the only way, you stay and just grow old
Or you could walk away before your hair turns grey before your soul is sold
So don’t be a miser, go tell Trip Adviser, to keep others from the fold
