As the world turns to the edge of night
All my children come out to cry
I've got a flashing guidin' light and the price is right
Where they searched for tomorrow every night.

I'm a honky tonk and if my walls could talk
They'd rather tell a lie than to tell the truth on you
I've got the lost and the found so come on down
I'm a honky tonk on loser's avenue.

In this one life to live there's another world
Where the young and the restless come to hide
And they search every night for that love of life
But the good times here are sometimes hard to find.

I'm a honky tonk and if my walls could talk
They'd rather tell a lie than to tell the truth on you
I've got the lost and the found so come on down
I'm a honky tonk on loser's avenue
