Lyrics
"Open Up My Honky Tonk"
I've drank up several Cadillacs and maybe a Rolls or two
furnished a mansion with luxuries while cryin in my blues
this honky tonk's been misery as well as my joy
and if weren't for what I spent, some wouldn't been
employed
So....Open up my honky tonk, the one you closed on
down ,it held my mem-o-'ries in it ,even those I wasn't
proud
Someone give me back those days, when I had a life
jus open up my honky tonk ....one more time
I get off work and I feel lost , ain't sure where to go
my stomping grounds been shut on down , the one I
used to know
I drive by the other joints, but they just don't seem right
they don't have what mine had ,so I just pass them by
So....Open up my honky tonk, the one you closed on
down ,it held my mem-o-'ries in it ,even those I wasn't
proud
Someone give me back those days, when I had a life
jus open up my honky tonk ....one more time
Shake the cobwebs off the door, get a new lock n key
turn the marquis lights back on, put out a sign
for me
Hire back 'ol what's her name the one I didn't like
just open up my honky tonk..... one more time
So....Open up my honky tonk, the one you closed on
down ,it held my mem-o-'ries in it ,even those I wasn't
proud
Someone give me back those days, when I had a life
jus open up my honky tonk ....one more time
jus open up my honky tonk ....one more time
