George Strait - If The Whole World Was A Honky Tonk Lyrics
If the whole world was a honky-tonk,And it revolved around an old jukebox,We'd tell our troubles to the Bar,Over cryin' steel guitars,And soon, they'd all be gone.Yeah, if you asked me what I thought,I'd say: "We'd be better off,"If the whole world was a honky-tonk."You could smoke that cigarette,An' be politically incorrect.Show off that red 'round your neck:Not hear a single soul object.Wouldn't need no lawyers to decide,Who is wrong and who is right.No need for big expensive trials:Brother, we'd just step outside.If the whole world was a honky-tonk,And it revolved around an old jukebox,We'd tell our troubles to the Bar,Over cryin' steel guitars,And soon, they'd all be gone.Yeah, if you asked me what I thought,I'd say: "We'd be better off,"If the whole world was a honky-tonk."Wouldn't have to pay no tax:Just set a tip jar in the back.If we ran low, we'd pass the hat:I bet we'd all be in the black,If the whole world was a honky-tonk.Instrumental Break.And if you're lookin' love:Someone to heal that broken heart.Hey, buddy, you'd be in half.You wouldn't have to go that far.If the whole world was a honky-tonk,And it revolved around an old jukebox,We'd tell our troubles to the Bar,Over cryin' steel guitars,And soon, they'd all be gone.If you asked me what I thought,I'd say: "We'd be better off,"If the whole world was a honky-tonk."Life would be a three-chord song,And the king would be George Jones,If the whole world was a honky-tonk.Instrumental Fade.
