Burnin' The Honky Tonks Down

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

Burnin' the honky tonks down

Smoke's been rising all over town

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

She caught me runnin' around

She was dancin' in the ashes

When they caught her with them matches

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

Well, she's burnin' the honky tonks down

I tried but I couldn't put them out

Did my best to save the whiskey

But the flame's just too risky

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

She couldn't stop that honky tonk sound

It was sizzlin' like a griddle

When I ran out with my fiddle

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

She's down in the jail house now

Said she felt no remorse

For breakin' out that torch

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

Yes, she's burnin' the honky tonks down

Burnin' the honky tonks down

Smoke's been a risin' all over town

She's burnin' the honky tonks down

Well, that smoke's been risin' all over town

She's burnin' the honky tonks down
