Testo Honky Tonk Hell - Bobby King
Testo della canzone Honky Tonk Hell (Bobby King), tratta dall'album Bobby King
I was speedin' home at 3 a.m. like I always do
Chewin' on a breath mint and plannin' my excuse
When I lost control and clipped a pole and headed for a wall
Kissin' that old windshield was the last thing I recall
But I wasn't in the hospital when I came to
I was sittin' on a barstool in some strangе saloon
But it wasn't like no honky-tonk I'd еver seen before
There were fireplaces everywhere and cinders on the floor
The beer on tap was warm and flat
The air was hot and smoky
And this girl kept singin' crazy
Out of tune to karaoke
The bartender said, "My name is Red
And in case you couldn't tell
You died and went to Honkytonk Hell"
I said, "Red, you must be jokin'" as this angel walked past
So my ring went in my pocket, and I asked her to dance
We stepped out on the dance floor, and as I pulled her close
I could see her eyes were hollow, she was nothin' but a ghost
I went runnin' for those swingin' doors, but they wouldn't swing
I tried to dial up 911, but the number wouldn't ring
Then Red said, "What's the hurry, son? Sit down because I'm buyin'
Besides, it's an eternity until it's closin' time"
And the beer on tap was warm and flat
The air was hot and smoky
And this girl kept singin' crazy
Out of tune to karaoke
The bartender said, "My name is Red
And in case you couldn't tell
You died and went to Honkytonk Hell"
You know it's hot, too
Well, the beer on tap was warm and flat
The air was hot and smoky
And this girl kept singin' crazy
Out of tune to karaoke
The bartender said, "My name is Red
And in case you couldn't tell
You died and went to Honkytonk Hell
You died and went to Honkytonk Hell"
