"Helpless In A Honky Tonk" lyrics

Joe Nichols Lyrics

"Helpless In A Honky Tonk"

Neon burns and the lights get dim
Cover band kicks into "Misery and Gin"
Don't matter what kind of shape I'm in
I'm helpless in a honky tonk

Two-steppin' boots on a hardwood floor
Good bartender with a heavy-handed pour
Here comes another shot of whiskey. Oh, Lord
I'm helpless in a honky tonk

Well the truth is
I'm useless
When a hole in the wall gets a hold of me
I keep rollin' tab open
Always one more song, maybe one more drink
Night after night
It's a losing fight
No secret I'm
Helpless in a honky tonk

Miss Tennessee's making eyes at me
One dance later, she'll be drinking for free
Like I needed another damn good reason to be
Helpless in a honky tonk

'Cause the truth is
I'm useless
When a hole in the wall gets a hold of me
I keep rollin' tab open
Always one more song, maybe one more drink
Night after night
It's a losing fight
No secret I'm
Helpless in a honky tonk

Well the truth is
I'm useless
When a hole in the wall gets a hold of me
I keep rollin' tab open
Always one more song, maybe one more drink
Night after night
It's a losing fight
No secret I'm
Helpless, helpless
Out of my hands
Ain't got a chance
I'm just a man
Helpless in a honky tonk
Oh, I'm helpless in a honky tonk
