Put a quarter in the jukebox, I need to hear a honky-tonk song Put a quarter in the jukebox, and I'll see if I can sing along Put a quarter in the jukebox, let's pretend that she's not gone Put a quarter in the jukebox, I need to hear a honky-tonk song Well this old hole-in-the-wall, is a beer joint fit for me I always see someone I know, hell A lot of times I drink for free Tonight I'm holding on, to the teardrops in my glass She's about ninety miles down the highway And now she is my past Chorus She left me crying on the front porch, Just a whalin' and a hollerin' loud I screamed please don't leave me, You're the only think I've got to be proud Next thing I know I'm sitting on this Barstool I've been sitting here all night With a bud light beer in my left hand And a shot of Jack on my right Chorus
