[Verse 1]
She's in some honky tonk tonight, I know
She's dancing where the music loud and the lights are low
In a crowded bar, she likes to hang around
And as long as there's a honky tonk, she's never gonna settle down

[Chorus]
So, close all the honky tonks, lock all the doors
Don't let the one of love go there anymore
Close all the honky tonks, throw away the key
Then maybe the one I love will come back to me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I wish I had to power to turn back the time
Back to the hours where she was all mine
I hate to see her running with that crowd downtown
But as long as there a honky tonk, she's never gonna settle down

[Chorus]
Close all the honky tonks, lock all the doors
Don't let the one of love go there anymore
Close all the honky tonks, throw away the key
Then maybe the one I love is gonna come back to me
