Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music You'll never make a wife to a home loving man A home and little children mean nothing to you A house filled with love and a husband so true I'd rather have a drink with the first guy I meet The only home I know is that bar down the street Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music You'll never make a wife to a home loving man Drinking and dancing, to a honky-tonk band Is the only kind of life I'll ever understand Go run and have your fun, you think you played it smart I'm sorry for you and your honky-tonk heart Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music You'll never make a wife to a home loving man
