She's in some honky tonk tonight I know She's dancing where the music's loud and lights are low In a crowed bar she likes to hang around And as long as there's a honky tonk, she'll never settle down So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors Don't let the one I love go there any more Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key Then maybe the one I love will come back to me If I had the power, I’d turn back the time And live again the hours when she was all mine It hurts to see her running with that crowd in town But as long as there's a honky tonk, she'll never settle down
