Yes, she's burnin' the honky tonks down
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
Said she felt no remorse
Burnin' the honky tonks down
When they caught her with them matches
Well, she's burnin' the honky tonks down
She was dancin' in the ashes
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
I tried but I couldn't put them out
For breakin' out that torch
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
Smoke's been rising all over town
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
She's down in the jail house now
She's burnin' the honky tonks down
Did my best to save the whiskey
She couldn't stop that honky tonk sound
But the flame's just too risky
Smoke's been a risin' all over town
She caught me runnin' around
When I ran out with my fiddle
It was sizzlin' like a griddle
Well, that smoke's been risin' all over town
