C.Dim lights thick smoke and loud, loud music
         E                                    B
  Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand
       E                                 A

1.A home and little children mean nothing to you
     E                            B
  A house filled with love and a husband so true
         E                                          A
  You'd rather have a drink with the first guy you meet
          E                            B
  And the only house you know is the club down the street

C.

2.A-drinkin' and a-dancin' to a honky-tonk band
  Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand
  Go on and have your fun, you think you've played it smart
  I feel sorry for you and your honky-tonk heart

C.
