Don't Put Down the Honky Tonks Songtext
von Charlie Walker

(Sanger D. Shafer - William Ellis)

Don′t put down the honky tonks until you been inside
Some go to dance some go to drink and losers go to hide
Darkness hides the heartaches each night until last call
Don't put down the honky tonks until you try them all.

Pretty painted faces on every other stool
And in between each painted face there sit a hardluck fool
If you slip and stumble you don′t have far to fall
So don't put down the honky tonks until you try them all.


No, don't put down the honky tonks they′re homes for fools like me
A place inside to run and hide and drown their misery
I sacrificed the chance I had to heed the neon′s call
So don't put down the honky tonks until you try them all.

So don't put down the honky tonks until you try them all.

No, don′t put down the honky tonks until you try them all...
