"Holding Down The Honky Tonk" lyrics

Scotty McCreery Lyrics

"Holding Down The Honky Tonk"

Til they run out of whiskey
Or I run out of memories
I'll be sitting on this old bar stool
Got a stack of quarters with me
Getting Haggard, Hanked and Willied
Healing this heartbreak old school
Baby since you left me
Ain't no chance you're gonna catch me
Sitting at the house all alone
Right here's where I'll be found
Til you come back around
I'll be holding down the honky tonk

I bet he's buying you Gucci
I bet he's driving you round
Sitting shotgun in his Bentley
Bet you got them windows down
I bet y'all talking 'bout diamonds
Just like we used to do
I'll be keeping this neon shinning
Drinking 'bout you

Til they run out of whiskey
Or I run out of memories
I'll be sitting on this old bar stool
Got a stack of quarters with me
Getting Haggard, Hanked and Willied
Healing this heartbreak old school
Baby since you left me
Ain't no chance you're gonna catch me
Sitting at the house all alone
Right here's where I'll be found
Til you come back around
I'll be holding down the honky tonk

Holding down the honky tonk
Holding down the honky tonk
Girl you ain't only one getting busy getting gone
I'm holding down the honky tonk

I bet your swimming in satin
I bet your drowning in pearls
Telling all your friends you're happy
But I know you better girl
When you lay down in that mansion
Turn off that chandelier
That old boy you're missing
Will be sitting right here

Til they run out of whiskey
Or I run out of memories
I'll be sitting on this old bar stool
Got a stack of quarters with me
Getting Haggard, Hanked and Willied
Healing this heartbreak old school
Baby since you left me
Ain't no chance you're gonna catch me
Sitting at the house all alone
Right here's where I'll be found
Til you come back around
I'll be holding down the honky tonk

Holding down the honky tonk
Holding down the honky tonk
You ain't only one getting busy getting gone
Girl I'm holding down the honky tonk

Now you ain't only one getting busy getting gone
Girl I'm holding down the honky tonk
