Paragraph Lyric
It won't be long now, until that ol' sun gets down
And up the stairs I hide, my shameful tears

My wife works all night long, for a man who's halfway gone
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs

bridge:

And it's a shame she wears the name
Of a man that's locked in chains
To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares

To a man with hungry eye's, she works and hides her pride
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
(copyright Dallas Frazier)
It won't be long now, until that ol' sun gets down  And up the stairs I hide, my shameful tears     My wife works all night long, for a man who's halfway gone  She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs    bridge:     And it's a shame she wears the name  Of a man that's locked in chains  To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares    To a man with hungry eye's, she works and hides her pride  She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs  (copyright Dallas Frazier)
