[Verse 1]
Pulled up late in a rust-red truck
Dust on the hood, luck runnin' thin
You were laughin' by the jukebox wall
With a wild little grin
Boots on the rail, eyes on me
Like you knew my name all night
You said, "Boy, if you're stayin' long
You better hold on tight"
[Pre-Chorus]
And the room got small
When you pulled me near
One more pour
And you were right here
[Chorus]
Honky-tonk women
Keep me leanin' in
Honky-tonk women
Break me, build me again
You got that fire
That won't sit still
Honky-tonk women
Yeah, you know the drill
[Verse 2]
Neon bled on the sticky floor
Dice rolls clacked in the side room haze
You stole my cap and wore it proud
Like you wore your bad old days
You don't ask for a tomorrow
You just laugh and take the ride
One sweet look and a hard goodbye
Then you vanish with the tide
[Pre-Chorus]
And I said your name
Like a prayer on cue
You flashed that smile
And the whole bar knew
[Chorus]
Honky-tonk women
Keep me leanin' in
Honky-tonk women
Break me, build me again
You got that fire
That won't sit still
Honky-tonk women
Yeah, you know the drill
[Bridge]
Maybe I'll settle, maybe I won't
Maybe that's just my kind of sin
But when the band kicks off that old backbeat
I know you're gonna walk back in
[Final Chorus]
Honky-tonk women
Keep me leanin' in
Honky-tonk women
Break me, build me again
You got that fire
That won't sit still
Honky-tonk women
Yeah, you know the drill
Honky-tonk women
I can feel it now
Honky-tonk women
Take me all the way down
