Honky-Tonk Ballad

Sawdust on the floor,

a Friday crowd

The band is tuning up,

the laughs are loud

I saw you walking in,

a quiet grace

In the middle of this rowdy place

And then the spotlight hit your hair

And suddenly there's magic in the air

(oh yeah)

Now the whole room fades to black and white

You're the only color shining bright tonight

Underneath the glow of the tavern signs

I'm falling for you,

reading all the lines

I struck a wrong chord but you didn't mind

You smiled at me and left the world behind (haha) So I'll

just keep on singing from my soul

While the upright bass begins to roll

Now the whole room fades to black and white

You're the only color shining bright tonight

Underneath the glow of the tavern signs

I'm falling for you,

reading all the lines

Reading all the lines,

yeah Just you and me

under the tavern signs (hmmm)
