Lights are bright all through the night in honky tonk town
Each cabaret seems bright and gay when love has turned you down
The jukebox plays to broken hearts the saddest kind of song
And red wine flows each night for those who's love affair went wrong
For them it's just a one way street a road of no return
For each heartache a drink they'll take but still the memories burn
Just smoke filled rooms and cheap
Perfumes and the call for another round
Life wasn't sweet to those you meet in honky tonk town
ย
You'll find that pride has all but died in honky tonk town
No longer proud I've joined the crowd and laid my honor down
Visions of the one I love keeps gnawing at my soul
Now my heart pines meet flashing signs in an atmosphere so cold
I'm headed down that one way street a road of no return
For each heartache a drink I'll take but still the memories burn
Just smoke filled rooms and cheap
Perfumes and the call for another round
With a broken heart I'm now a part of honky tonk town
