Dim lights,thick smoke and loud loud music
Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand
Dim lights, thick smoke and loud loud music
You'll never make a wife to a home lovin' man
A home and little children means nothing to you
A house filled with love and a husband that's true
You'd rather take a drink with the first guy you meet
And the only home you know is the bar down the street
* Refrain
A-drinkin' and a listen'n to a honky tonk band
In the only kind of life you'll ever understand
Go on and have your fun you'll think you played it smart
I'm sorry for you and your honky tonk heart
* Refrain
