Close Up the Honky Tonks

She's in some honky tonk tonight, I know

She's dancing where the music's loud and lights are 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

And maybe the one I love will come back to me

If I had the power I? d turn back 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

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

And maybe the one I love will come back to me

Yeah, maybe the one I love will come back to me

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

And maybe the one I love will come back to me

Close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors

Don't let the one I love go there anymore
