Dim lights thick smoke and loud loud music It's the only kind of life you'll never understand Dim lights thick smoke and loud loud music You'll never make a wife to a home loving man Drinking and dancing to a honky tonk band Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand Go on and have your fun you think you've played it smart I feel sorry for you and your honky tonk heart Dim lights thick smoke and loud loud music... [ steel - guitar ] A home and little children means nothing to you A house filled with love and the husband so true You'd rather have a drink with the first man you'll meet The only home you'll know is the bar down the street Dim lights thick smoke and loud loud music... No you'll never make a wife to a home loving man
