Honky Tonk Down Stairs

Well, it won't be long now

Until that ol' sun goes down

And darkness helps me hide my shameful tears

My wife works all night long

For a man who's halfway gone

She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs

It's a shame she wears the name

Of a man who's locked and chained

To a bottle that's destroyin' all hopes and cares

To the men with the hungry eyes

She works and hides her pride

She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
