Honky Tonk Downstairs Lyrics - Singles - Dan Mccafferty

It won't be long now until that old sun gets down 

And up the stairs I hide my shameful tears 

My wife works all night long for a man who's halfway gone 

She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs 

And it's a shame, she wears the name of a man that's locked in chain 

To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares 

To a man with hungry eyes, she works and hides her pride 

She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs 

It won't be long now until that old sun gets down 

And up the stairs I hide my shameful tears 

My wife works all night long for a man who's halfway gone 

She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs 

It's a shame, she wears the name of a man that's locked in chain 

To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares 

To the man with hungry eyes, she works and hides her pride 

She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs 

She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs 

She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
