Well, I'm just a bartender and I don't like my work
But I don't mind the money at all
I've seen lots of sad faces and lots of bad cases
Of folks with their backs to the wall
Chorus:
But I got four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
Well, I can light up your smokes, I can laugh at your jokes
I can watch you fall down on your knees
I can close down this bar, oh, and gas up my car
And I can pack up and mail in my keys
Chorus:
But I got four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
Now the smoke fills the air of this honky tonk bar
And I'm thinkin' bout where I'd rather be
But I burned all my bridges and I sunk all my ships
And I'm stranded at the edge of the sea
Chorus:
But I got four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away...
But I don't mind the money at all
I've seen lots of sad faces and lots of bad cases
Of folks with their backs to the wall
Chorus:
But I got four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
Well, I can light up your smokes, I can laugh at your jokes
I can watch you fall down on your knees
I can close down this bar, oh, and gas up my car
And I can pack up and mail in my keys
Chorus:
But I got four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
Now the smoke fills the air of this honky tonk bar
And I'm thinkin' bout where I'd rather be
But I burned all my bridges and I sunk all my ships
And I'm stranded at the edge of the sea
Chorus:
But I got four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away...
