Honky Tonk Downstairs

Honky Tonk Downstairs

(album: Strait Country - 1981)

Well, it won't be long now
Til 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.

[Chorus:]
It's a shame she wears the name
Of a man who's locked and chained
To a bottle that's destroying 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.

[Chorus]
