Lyrics Close Up The Honky-Tonks - The Flying Burrito Brothers

Close Up The Honky-Tonks

She’s in some honky tonk tonight, I know
Where the music’s loud and the lights are low
… in that crowd downtown
In a crowded bar she likes to hang around
And as long as there’s a honky tonk, she’ll never settle down
So close up the honky tonk, lock all the doors
Don’t let the one I love go there any more
Close up the honky tonk, throw away the key
Then maybe the one I love will come back to me
I wish I had the power to turn back the time
And live again the hours when she was mine
'Cause it hurts to see her running with that crowd downtown
And as long as there’s a honky tonk she’ll never settle down
So close up the honky tonk, lock all the doors
Don’t let the one I love go there any more
Close up the honky tonk, throw away the key
Maybe the one I love will come back to me
Then maybe the one I love will come back to me
