One more dime for the jukebox
And one more waltz across the floor
Well you can play me the rose of San Antone
For I won't be seen here anymore

And those honky tonk bars
And the bright lights have faded
The swingin' doors held a whiskey too
My honky tonk angel is leavin' tonight
She got a man down in Baton Rouge

Well now pick me a song on the jukebox
And we'll dance every dance the whole night through
My honky angel has finally settled down
And I been thinkin' maybe I should too

Well darling are you really leavin'?
Well just one more kiss before you go
Hell one more stroll across that old dance floor
We'll carry on and on until they run us up out the door

Now pick me a song on the jukebox
And we'll dance every dance the whole night through
My honky angel has finally settled down
And I been thinkin' maybe I should too
