Lyrics Honky Tonk Down Stairs - George Strait

Honky Tonk Down Stairs

Wellit wonЂ™t be long now
Til that Ђ™ol sun goes down
And darkness helps me hide my shameful tears.
My wife works all night long
For a man whoЂ™s halfway gone
SheЂ™s the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs.
Chorus:
ItЂ™s a shame she wears the name
Of a man whoЂ™s locked and chained
To a bottle thatЂ™s destroyinЂ™ all hopes and cares.
To the men with hungry eyes
She works and hides her pride
SheЂ™s the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs.
Repeat chorus
