The Walls Of This Honky Tonk
by Dave Undis and Jackie Hibbard

VERSE
Hank and Waylon and Willie have all played here,
Back when a quarter would buy you a beer.
In a poker game by the back door two rednecks lost their trucks.
They both had four of a kind but they couldn't beat a straight flush.

CHORUS
These walls have heard so many cry and sing.
They've seen the tears, the laughter, and the pain.
Memories live in the plywood, the nails, and the caulk.
Man, if the walls of this honky tonk could talk.

VERSE
A judge was kissing his girl one night when his wife walked in.
She grabbed a pool cue and broke it across his chin.
A biker pulled a knife on a cowboy. He didn’t like the way he talked.
An hour later that biker was outlined in chalk.

CHORUS
These walls have heard so many cry and sing.
They've seen the tears, the laughter, and the pain.
Memories live in the plywood, the nails, and the caulk.
Man, if the walls of this honky tonk could talk.

BRIDGE
Broken hearts, broken homes,
Broken noses, broken bones.
First drinks, last arrests.
First kisses, last breaths.

Broken hearts, broken homes,
Broken noses, broken bones.
First drinks, last arrests.
First kisses, last breaths.
Broken hearts, broken homes,
Broken noses, broken bones.
First drinks, last arrests.
First kisses, last breaths.
