She's in some honky tonk tonight I know She's dancing where the music's loud and lights're low In a crowded 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 anymore Close up the honky tonks throw away the key Then maybe the one I love will come back to me [ steel ] I wish I had the power to turn back the time And live again the hours when she was all mine But it hurts to see her running with that crowd downtown And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down So close up the honky tonks...
