Every Little Honky Tonk Bar Lyrics

[00:13.28] Whiskey is the gasoline that lights the fire that burns the bridge
[00:17.24] Ice creates the water that's no longer runnin' under it
[00:21.19] Stool holds the fool that pours the whiskey on his broken heart
[00:28.92] Cigarettes create the smoke that hides the lonesome in his eyes
[00:32.94] The jukebox plays Hank "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"
[00:36.99] Dance floor holds the folks trying to forget who they are
[00:42.95] And that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar
[00:50.13] Friday night, it's a given
[00:54.03] I'll be L-I-V-N, livin'
[00:58.18] We'll dance on the bar 'til we're sleeping it off in the car
[01:05.85] Monday morning, it's a given
[01:09.75] I'll be D-R-A-G-N, draggin'
[01:13.98] And that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar
[01:19.97]
[01:37.92] Neon lights flashin' bright 'til you're almost hypnotized
[01:41.71] Waitress, short skirt gets hit on by every guy
[01:45.81] Comin' and goin' always rollin' with the flow
[01:51.11]
[01:53.44] Bartender pourin' drinks código double shots
[01:57.46] You think you're tall and bulletproof until somebody says you're not
[02:01.52] Step outside thinkin' you're gonna show 'em you are
[02:09.22] That's what happens in every little honky tonk bar
[02:16.63] Friday night, it's a given
[02:20.51] We'll be L-I-V-N, livin'
[02:24.57] We'll dance on the bar 'til we're sleeping it off in the car
[02:32.42] Monday morning, it's a given
[02:36.33] We'll be D-R-A-G-N, draggin'
[02:40.43] And that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar
[02:48.38] Yeah that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar
[02:56.55] Whiskey is the gasoline that lights the fire that burns the bridge
[03:01.40]
