Honky Tonk Downstairs

Well, it won't be long now
Until that 'ol sun goes down
And darkness helps me
Hide my shameful tears

My wife works all night long
For a man who's halfway gone
She's the barmaid in
The honky-tonk downstairs

It's a shame she wears the name
Of a man who's locked and chained
To a bottle that's destroyin' all hopes and cares

To the men with hungry eyes
She works and hides her pride
She's the barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs

It's a shame she wears the name
Of a man who's locked and chained
To a bottle that's destroyin' all hopes and cares

To the men with hungry eyes
She works and hides her pride
She's the barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
She's the barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
