Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music
Its the only kind of live youll ever understand
Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
Youll never look at your wife, you go home loving mine
At home and little children, and evil
Our house filled with love or hugs, that true
Youd rather have a drink with the bourbon kind you need it
And the only home you know, that ṗub down the street
Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music
Its the only kind of live youll ever understand
Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
Youll never look at your wife, go home loving mine
Good thinking and fixing to a honky-tonk made it
When you left your loving family life back, right back where you ran
So go on and have your fun, but you wont always look so smart
When some day that lonely bar brake your honky-tonk heart
Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music
Its the only kind of live youll ever understand
Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
Youll never look at your wife, to a home loving mine
Oh Youll never look at your wife, to a home loving mine
Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music
Youll never look at your wife, to a home loving mine
