oldstar - Honkeytonk Lyrics

Saw you at the honkeytonk
Held in the V.A. hall
Shining underneath the halo
Of a cracked mirror ball

The bands, they were playing
The same ol' four chord country songs
I woulda gone dancing
But I's afraid I'd fall

You're as bright as the stadium lights
That keep the night away
When I'm in a crowd I try to make out
Something like your face

I knew I'd make a fool of myself
If I walked on to your side of the band
So I packed up and left
Haunted by the thought of you in someone else's arms
If I'm being honest the beers weren't flowing
But the next night, they were
I couldn't keep my eyes open

You're as bright as the stadium lights
That keep the night away
When I'm in a crowd I try to make out
Something like your face
You're as bright as the stadium lights
That keep the night away
Man, I sure do regret all the time that I spent lyin' awake

I saw you at the
I saw you at the
I saw you at the
The honkeytonk
The honkeytonk

I saw you at the
I saw you at the
I saw you at the
The honkeytonk
The honkeytonk

I saw you at the
