[Verse 1: Rosie Flores]
I got a Lone Star beer in my left hand
And my sweetheart holds my right
There's a little dive down on a lost highway
That's gonna rock and roll tonight
Now, there's an old jukebox on a sawdust floor
Playing Hank and Patsy Cline
Hey, good-looking, you better stay, but
You got leaving on your mind
[Chorus: Rosie Flores & Pat Gallagher]
'Cause there's a honky-tonk moon
In a western sky
I like my boots cut low
I like my whiskey rye
There's a honky-tonk moon
And I don't wanna go home
I wanna yipee-ya-oh-ki-yay
'Til the night is gone
[Verse 2: Rosie Flores]
Well, the pool balls click and the air is thick
They're smoking barbecue
And a cowgirl smiles and she walks right up
To a cowboy on a stool
He says, "Now, don't sit still, let's play Bob Wills
We'll cut a rug in two"
So heart to heart and cheek to cheek
That's exactly what they'll do
[Chorus: Rosie Flores & Pat Gallagher]
'Cause there's a honky-tonk moon
In a western sky
I like my boots cut low
I like my whiskey rye
There's a honky-tonk moon
And I don't wanna go home
I wanna yipee-ya-oh-ki-yay
'Til the night is gone
[Post-Chorus: Rosie Flores]
Oh, take me back to San Antone
[Chorus: Rosie Flores & Pat Gallagher, Rosie Flores]
'Cause there's a honky-tonk moon
In a western sky
I like my boots cut low, real low
I like my whiskey rye
There's a honky-tonk moon
And I don't wanna go home
I wanna yipee-ya-oh-ki-yay
'Til the night is gone
I wanna yip yip yipee-ya-oh-ki-yay
'Til the honky-tonk moon is gone
