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

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
