Charlie Walker - Close All the Honky Tonks lyrics

(Red Simpson)

She's in some honky tonk tonight I know

Dancin' where the music's loud and lights're low

In a crowded bar she likes to hang around

And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down.

Close all the honky tonks, lock all the doors

Don't let the one I love go there anymore

Close all the honky tonks throw away the key

Then maybe the one I love will come back to me.

--- Instrumental ---

I wish I had the power to turn back the time

And live again the hours when she was all mine

It hurts to see her running with that crowd downtown

And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down.

Close all the honky tonks, lock all the doors

Don't let the one I love go there anymore

Close all the honky tonks throw away the key

Then maybe the one I love will come back to me.

Then maybe the one I love will come back to me...
