The jukebox is playing
in some dark cantina
ol` Hank is setting
the woods on fire
It's a stormy night
the wind is howling
a sad old blues
hrough these honky tonk walls
Another storm rages
in the back of my mind
the snake'll soon appear
Tequila's just fine
I spend my days
in a country-song world
I wake every morning
beside a new face
And at night I spend
a haystac of dollars
Mezcal and Tequila
are my only true friends
When will this end?
what shall I do?
it's too late to turn back
and too late for my tears
Epilog:
I should have known
love can be broken
from actions undone
sweet words unspoken
in some dark cantina
ol` Hank is setting
the woods on fire
It's a stormy night
the wind is howling
a sad old blues
hrough these honky tonk walls
Another storm rages
in the back of my mind
the snake'll soon appear
Tequila's just fine
I spend my days
in a country-song world
I wake every morning
beside a new face
And at night I spend
a haystac of dollars
Mezcal and Tequila
are my only true friends
When will this end?
what shall I do?
it's too late to turn back
and too late for my tears
Epilog:
I should have known
love can be broken
from actions undone
sweet words unspoken
