every little honky tonk bar

Lyrics

whiskey is the gasoline that lights the fire that burns the bridge, ice creates the water that's no longer runnin' under it, stool holds the fool that pours the whiskey on his broken heart, the cigarettes create the smoke that hides the lonesome in his eye, the jukebox plays hank, "i'm so lonesome i could cry", the dance floor holds the folks trying to forget who they are, and that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar, friday night, it's a given, i'll be l-i-v-n, livin', we'll dance on the bar 'til we're sleeping it off in the car, monday morning, it's a given, i'll be d-r-a-g-n, draggin', and that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar, neon lights flashin' bright 'til you're almost hypnotized, waitress, short skirt, gets hit on by every guy, comin' and goin', always rollin' with the flow, bartender pourin' drinks, codigo do a shot, you think you're tall and bulletproof until somebody says you're not, you step outside thinkin' you're gonna show 'em you are, and that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar, friday night, it's a given, we'll be l-i-v-n, livin', we'll dance on the bar 'til we're sleeping it off in the car, monday morning, it's a given, we'll be d-r-a-g-n, draggin', and that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar, yeah that's what happens in every little honky tonk bar, whiskey is the gasoline that lights the fire that burns the bridge
