Wayne Mills - The Last Honky Tonk Lyrics
Well the way things are goingIt won't be very longTill them flashing neon signsAre all but goneThey say the nightlife ain't the right lifePour the whiskey down the drainMelt down all those 45'sThat talk about trucks and trainsCHORUSI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk downIn body, mind, and spiritUnder the table or under the groundThe fading echoes of a bar-room bandMight be the only soundI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk downPull the jukebox from the ashesDust it off, and turn it onWe'll dance in the burning embers until dawnWe'll pull a double from the rowAnd we'll drink to the good ol' daysSit there till the smoke clearsAnd my last selection playsCHORUSI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk downIn body, mind, and spiritUnder the table or under the groundThe fading echoes of a bar-room bandMight be the only soundI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk downINST.CHORUSI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk downIn body, mind, and spiritUnder the table or under the groundThe fading echoes of the bar-room bandMight be the only soundI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk downI'll be there when they burnThe last honky-tonk down
