Honky Tonk Waltz

A honky tonk waltz

The juke box was playin'

As I was swayin’

That darlin' of mine

Just a honky tonk waltz

C twenty-seven

Ah, but it felt like heaven

In three quarter time

Then a stranger walked by

That's when it happened

She caught his eye

He came a-tappin’ askin' to share

A honky tonk waltz

Was a suggestion

But from her expression

I knew from the start

That a honky tonk waltz

Played our love's ending

And the beginning

Of my broken heart

Then a stranger walked by

That's when it happened

She caught his eye

He came a-tappin' askin' to share

A honky tonk waltz

Was a suggestion

But from her expression

I knew from the start

That a honky tonk waltz

Played our love's ending

And the beginning

Of my broken heart
