Clint Black - Winding Down lyrics

As past times go I guess I've seen some good

It's not always the best ones come and stay

There's a crowd that thinks there is one, and it should

'Cause they always seem to spend theirs the some old way.

And they call it winding down

The six to ten crowd, smoky bars

Notes on napkins and business cards

Describe the days events and go on home.

And it's likely they won't drown

The price goes up and one more round

They close up all the bars downtown

As the singer plays one last rip roaring song.

It seems like the same ole motions every night

He wants to hear a golden oldie to take him back

And I'll play out all the emotions I can't fight

Relieve the tensions and hope they're on the right track.

And they call it winding down

The six to ten crowd, smoky bars

Notes on napkins and business cards

Describe the days events and go on home.

And it's likely they won't drown

The price goes up and one more round

They close up all the bars downtown

As the singer plays one last rip roaring song.

Honky tonk heroes are turn the page

And the books are closed tonight

'Cause everybody knows you gottta leave'em up

So they'll go home feeling right.

You gotta leave'em up

So they'll go home feeling right...
