Listen & view Hank Thompson - Honky Tonk Town lyrics & tabs

Lights are bright all through the night in honky tonk town
Each Cabaret seems bright and gay when love has turned you down
The jukebox plays to broken hearts the saddest kind of songs
And red wine flows each night for those who’s love affair went wrong

For them it’s just a one way street a road of no return
For each heartache a drink they’ll take but still the memories burn
Just smoke filled rooms and cheap perfume and the call for another round
Life wasn’t sweet to those you meet in honky tonk town

You’ll find that crime has all but died in honky tonk town
No longer proud I’ve joined the crowd and laid my honor down
Visions of the one I love keeps gnawing at my soul
Now my heart pines meet flashing signs in an atmosphere so cold

I’m heading down that one way street a road of no return
For each heartache a drink I’ll take but still the memories burn
Just smoke filled rooms and cheap perfume and the call for another round
With a broken heart I’m now a part of honky tonk town
