And live again the hours when she was all mine
Don't let the one I love go there anymore
Don't let the one I love go there anymore
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key
In a crowded bar she likes to hang around
Yeah, maybe the one I love will come back to me
But as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down
And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down
Close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
Close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
It hurts to see her running with that crowd in town
So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
If I had the power I’d turn back time
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key
So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
And maybe the one I love will come back to me
And maybe the one I love will come back to me
And maybe the one I love will come back to me
Don't let the one I love go there anymore
