Dan Mccafferty Honky Tonk Downstairs lyrics

It won't be long now until that old sun gets down
And up the stairs I hide my shameful tears

My wife works all night long for a man who's halfway gone
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs

And it's a shame, she wears the name of a man that's locked in chain
To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares

To a man with hungry eyes, she works and hides her pride
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs

It won't be long now until that old sun gets down
And up the stairs I hide my shameful tears


My wife works all night long for a man who's halfway gone
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs

It's a shame, she wears the name of a man that's locked in chain
To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares

To the man with hungry eyes, she works and hides her pride
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
