I drove down to The Trap but the joint was closed   Lately they’ve been droppin’ like Dominos   All of my favorite waterin’ holes are dryin’ up   Tell me is it too much for a man to ask   To hear Haggard and Jones sing CC Waterback   With the lights so low   And cold drafts will cost you one buck   Enough’s enough.      Chorus:   Somebody save the honky tonks   The hard wood floor and the quarter jukebox   Where’s the workin’ man gonna go to get tore up   When the last one’s tore down   Somebody save the neon lights   And the cinderblock shacks crossed the county line   Everyday another piece of history’s lost   Somebody save the honky tonks.      Well, it’s enough to bring a tear to a blood shot eye   Not knowin’ where to go on a Friday night   To get down and get loud   And unwind from a hard day   Listen, we the people got a make a stand   Maybe write a letter to our congressman   Show some support for the drinkin’ man   We can’t wait, until it’s too late.      Chorus:   Somebody save the honky tonks   The hard wood floor and the quarter jukebox   Where’s the workin’ man gonna go to get tore up   When the last one’s tore down   Somebody Save the neon lights   And the cinderblock shacks crossed the county line   Everyday another piece of history’s lost   Somebody save the honky tonks.      Why don’t they take that ol’ wreckin’ ball   To the uppity bars, down at the mall   All I’m askin, all I want   Somebody save the honky tonks.
