This Ol’ Honky Tonk

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I have spent in many a dim lit barroom Dancing the night away A country song on a jukebox or a live cowboy band While the pinball machines rang away One lonesome heart chasin' after another While the other one's walkin' away Somebody's laughin' 'cause nobody's tryin' To listen to all that they say [Chorus] Well here's to the barroom And here's to your dreams You can bury all your worries In the honky tonk scene Your heart has a home If you're feelin' all alone Just forget all your troubles tonight This ol' honky tonk makes it alright [Verse 2] Well I've seen a few stories, I've held mornin' glories They're fresh in my memory I'm walkin' the lines between all the pages To read them out loud someday Let's bring on the good times, forget about the sad times Chase all my blues away Pour me another and send me a kiss Tomorrow's a long time away [Chorus] But here's to the barroom And here's to your dreams You can bury all your worries In the honky tonk scene Your heart has a home If you're feelin' all alone Just forget all your troubles tonight This ol' honky tonk makes it alright [Outro] Well forget all your troubles And pour me a double This ol' honky tonk makes it alright
