[Verse 1]
There's a honky tonk on the edge of town
I used to call my second home
It's a place I'd go just to get away
When I wanted to be alone
Well early one morning, I had a fight with my darling
That went from bad to worse
It ended when she said, "your second home
Just became your first"

[Chorus]
Now the jukebox is my alarm clock
I wake up in a corner booth
I don't have a tab
Don't need no cab
'Cause the dance floor's my living room
Well I might die from a broken heart
But I'll never die of thirst
Now that my second home has become my first

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Well, I don't have to pay no mortgage
I don't have to mow no lawn
A lot of friends come see me
Some stay until the break of dawn
I can paint the town without leavin the house
I can feel good 'til it hurts
Now that home sweet second home
Just became my first
[Chorus]
Now the jukebox is my alarm clock
I wake up in a corner booth
I don't have a tab
Don't need no cab
'Cause the dance floor's my living room
Well I might die from a broken heart
But I'll never die of thirst
Now that my second home has become my first

Lord, now that my second home has become my first
