Knee deep in the Bulleit, one foot in the dirt Yeah, his bloodshot eyes are empty as a Monday morning' church On a stool in the corner where he's been all week Only way I know he's breathing is he just took a drink And he keeps heading toward the neon light There's a hole in his heart down at the hole in the wall They found him with his hand wrapped 'round a whiskey poured too strong There ain't no murder weapon, just a note that says "she's gone" And if they put it in the paper then it wouldn't say much at all "One Man Dead At The Honky Tonk" We all saw it coming from a mile away We knew that her goodbye would put him in the grave And no, she won't go to prison, but he's doing life She tied him to the bar and let that firewater rise Her leaving sent him to the other side There's a hole in his heart down at the hole in the wall They found him with his hand wrapped 'round a whiskey poured too strong There ain't no murder weapon, just a note that says "she's gone" And if they put it in the paper then it wouldn't say much at all "One Man Dead At The Honky Tonk" He's leaning on that bottle and it's cutting like a knife And he keeps heading toward the neon light There's a hole in his heart down at the hole in the wall They found him in there drowning in a whiskey waterfall There ain't no murder weapon, just a note that says "she's gone" And if they put it in the paper then it wouldn't say much at all "One Man Dead At The Honky Tonk" "One Man Dead At The Honky Tonk" "One Man Dead At The Honky Tonk" "One Man Dead At The Honky Tonk"
