Honky-Tonk Man (1983)
I've never seen you look quite so sad
I've never felt me feel quite so bad
And I know we both feel that we have been had
Well I guess we were just not that strong

I lost my woman and you lost your man
And who knows who's right and who's wrong
But I've still got my guitar and I've got a plan
Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man

Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man
And we'll get through this night the best way we can
It's the best old pain killer since hurting began
Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man


I miss that woman and you miss him too
There's not a hell of a lot we can do
But cling to each other till the hurting is through
And the hurt can only last just so long

You be my woman and I'll be your man
Even if just for a while
I still got my guitar and I've got a plan
Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man

Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man
And we'll get through this night the best way we can
It's the best old pain killer since hurting began
Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man
Throw your arms around this honky-tonk man
