Don't The Girls All Get Prettier At Closing Time (1976)
One two one two three go

All the girls all get prettier at closing time
Don't they all begin to look like movie stars?
All the girls all get prettier at closing time
When the change starts taking place it puts a glow on every face
Of the fallen angels of the back street bars

I could rate them on a scale from one to ten
Looking for a nine but eight could work right in
A few more drinks and I might slip to five or even four
But when tomorrow morning comes
And I wake up with a number one
I swear I’ll never do it anymore

All the girls all get prettier at closing time
Don't they all begin to look like movie stars?
All the girls all get prettier at closing time
When the change starts taking place it puts a glow on every face
Of the fallen angels of the back street bars

I don't mean to criticize the girls at all
Cause I’m no Robert Redford even overhauled
But we all picture in our minds a girl that looks just right
Now ain't it funny, ain't it strange
The way a man's opinions change
When he starts to face that lonely night

All the girls all get prettier at closing time
Don't they all begin to look like movie stars?
All the girls all get prettier at closing time
When the change starts taking place it puts a glow on every face
Of the fallen angels of the back street bars
The fallen angels of the back street bars
