Burn Another Honky Tonk Down
Timber, Lies, and Honky Tonk Flames
Lyrics
I work on the mountain cuttin' the timber
I work in the mountains cutting timber for a living
I work till my fingers are sore
I work until my fingers are sore from labor
Cutting the timber, goes through the saw mill
Cutting the timber that will be processed at the sawmill
To build another honky tonk bar
To construct another honky-tonk bar
While down in the valley she's spendin' my money
While my partner is spending the money I earn
Havin' herself quit a ball
Engaging in a lively social life and having a good time
Spending my money I earn at the sawmill
Spending the money earned at the sawmill
To build another honky tonk bar
To construct yet another honky-tonk bar
Early each mornin' I'm back on that mountain
Every morning, returning to the mountain for work
Wishin' her lies were the truth
Wishing that the lies told by the partner were true
Cutting the tiber that goes through the sawmil
Cutting the timber that goes through the sawmill
To build another honky tonk bar
To build another honky-tonk bar
But tonights all over
The current situation is over
I'm through cuttin' the timber
Finished with the timber-cutting job
I know right where she''ll be found
Anticipating finding the partner in a specific location
I look through the window
Looking through a window to verify the partner's location
And if she's still in there
If she's still in the honky-tonk bar
I'm gonna burn a honky tonk down
Planning to burn down the honky-tonk as a consequence
Yes tonights all over
The current situation is over
I'm through cuttin' the timber
Finished with the timber-cutting job
I know right where she''ll be found
Anticipating finding the partner in a specific location
I'll look through the window
Looking through a window to verify the partner's location
And if she's still in there
If she's still in the honky-tonk bar
I'm gonna burn another honky tonk down
Planning to burn down another honky-tonk as a consequence
I'll look through the window
Looking through the window
And if she's still in there
If she's still in the honky-tonk bar
I'm gonna burn another honky tonk down
Planning to burn down another honky-tonk as a consequence
