No Honky-Tonks

Ain’t no honky-tonks in this town
smoky bars and neon lights
Ain’t no juke box in the corner
playing Hank songs every night
Ain’t no steel guitar and fiddle
shuffling dancers across the floor
There ain’t no honky-tonks in this town
and I can’t take it anymore
Well these night been sad and lonely
since they closed the Foothill down
No more nights at the Palomino
where I heard that lonesome sound
Got no place to drown my sorrow
to the sound of «Misery and Gin»
Are they really gone forever?
we’ve got to bring them back again
Ain’t no honky-tonks in this town
smoky bars and neon lights
Ain’t no juke box in the corner
playing George Jones every night
Ain’t no steel guitar and fiddle
shuffling dancers across the floor
There ain’t no honky-tonks in this town
and I can’t take it anymore
They got Bluegrass out in Nashville
man I love those harmonies
They got Red Dirt in Oklahoma
but that’s just rock n roll to me
Since they closed the Armadillo
a part of history was gone
Yeah even out in Texas
you know its barely hanging on
Ain’t no honky-tonks in this town
smoky bars and neon lights
Ain’t no juke box in the corner
playing Waylon every night
Ain’t no steel guitar and fiddle
shuffling dancers across the floor
There ain’t no honky-tonks in this town
and I can’t take it anymore
