"Another Honky-Tonk Night On Broadway" lyrics
David Frizzell & Shelly West Lyrics
"Another Honky-Tonk Night On Broadway"
I sold my horse and saddle
Rode the Greydog to New York
My guitar and 50 dollars
Between bein all alone
Found a job that pays ok
But it costs twice as much to stay
So I'll just buy myself a beer and dream of home
When things ain't going good
That's when everything goes bad
But this old bar's my home away from home
I won't worry about tomorrow
'Cause tonight I'll drown my sorrow
Think about that sweet thang back in San Antoine
I'm hangin' in by hangin' out
'Til I drink the night away
'Til I find my name in neon lights
I guess I'm gonna have to stay
But I'm tired of sleepin' all alone
My arms can reach to San Antoine
So tonight'll be another honky tonk night on Broadway
When all that's on my mind is the love you left behind
That's when honkin' tonkin' helps to ease the pain
And you know that I get lonesome too
But these cowboys know I belong to you
And I'm waitin' 'til I'm in your arms again
I'm hangin' in by hangin' out
'Til I drink the night away
'Til you find your name in neon lights
I guess you're gonna have to stay
I'm so tired of sleepin' all alone
My arms can reach to San Antoine
So tonight'll be another honky tonk night on Broadway
I'm hangin' in by hangin' out
'Til I drink the night away
'Til you find your name in neon lights
I guess you're gonna have to stay
I'm so tired of sleepin' all alone
My arms can reach to San Antoine
So tonight'll be another honky tonk night on Broadway

Eddie Rabbitt - "Two Dollars In The Jukebox" I've got two dollars in the jukebox
And five dollars in a bottle
And ten more just in case that don't do the trick
And I'll be dead broke tomorrow morning
With heart-aches by the dozen
And a lady on...
Moe Bandy - "Barstool Mountain" I finally found a place where I can take it
All this loneliness you've left behind
On a mountain that's no hill for a climber
Just one step up sit back and pour the wine
And I climb up on barstool...
Mel Tillis - "Southern Rains" Sometimes my soul gets weary and my mind begins to wonder
And like that old train "The Hummingbird" it goes to Alabam
They say home is where the heart is and mine is down in Dixie
And when you go...
The Oak Ridge Boys - "Elvira" Elvira, Elvira, my heart's on fire, for Elvira
Eyes that look like heaven, lips like cherry wine
That girl can sure enough make my little light shine
I get a funny feelin' up and down my spine...
