Close Up The Honky-Tonks - The Flying Burrito Brothers

She’s in some honky tonk tonight, I know

Where the music’s loud and the lights are low

… in that crowd downtown

In a crowded bar she likes to hang around

And as long as there’s a honky tonk, she’ll never settle down

So close up the honky tonk, lock all the doors

Don’t let the one I love go there any more

Close up the honky tonk, throw away the key

Then maybe the one I love will come back to me

I wish I had the power to turn back the time

And live again the hours when she was mine

'Cause it hurts to see her running with that crowd downtown

And as long as there’s a honky tonk she’ll never settle down

So close up the honky tonk, lock all the doors

Don’t let the one I love go there any more

Close up the honky tonk, throw away the key

Maybe the one I love will come back to me

Then maybe the one I love will come back to me
