Now I'm just a bartender
and I don't like my work
but I don't mind

the money at all
I see lots of sad faces

and lots of bad cases

of folks with their
backs to the wall
I need four walls around
me to hold my life
to keep me

from going astray
And a honky tonk
angel to hold me tight
to keep me

from slippin' away
angel to hold me tight

to keep me

from slippin' away
I can light

up your smokes

I can laugh

at your jokes
I can watch you fall

down on your knees
I can close down this bar
I can gas up my car
I can pack up and

mail in my keys
I can pack up and

mail in my keys
But I need four walls
around me to hold my life
to keep me

from going astray
around me to hold my life
to keep me

from going astray
And a honky tonk
angel to hold me tight
to keep me

from slippin' away
( Instrumental Break)
Now the smoke

fills the air

in ibis honky tonk bar
where I'd rather be but
I burned all my bridges
and I sank all my ships
I need four walls around
me to hold my life
to keep me

from going astray
And a honky tonk
angel to hold me tight
to keep me

from slippin' away
