The hard wood floor and the quarter jukebox
Somebody save the honky tonks
To hear Haggard and Jones sing CC Waterback
Where's the workin' man gonna go to get tore up?
With the lights so low
The hard wood floor and the quarter jukebox
Somebody save the honky tonks
All I'm askin' and all I want
Well, it's enough to bring a tear to a blood shot eye
Somebody save the honky tonks
Everyday another piece of history's lost
Somebody save the neon lights
To get down and get loud
Everyday another piece of history's lost
Not knowin' where to go on a Friday night
And unwind from a hard day
Listen, we the people got a make a stand
Somebody save the honky tonks
And the cinder block shacks crossed the county line
To the uppity bars, down at the mall?
Show some support for the drinkin' man
And the cinder block shacks crossed the county line
And cold drafts will cost you one buck, enough's enough
Waterin' holes are dryin' up
Where's the workin' man gonna go to get tore up?
Tell me, is it too much for a man to ask
When the last one's tore down
All of my favorite
Maybe write a letter to our Congressman
Somebody save the neon lights
We can't wait, until it's too late
Why don't they take that ol' wreckin' ball
When the last one's tore down
