lirik lagu george strait – if the whole world was a honky tonk
written by ashley goring, wade kirby and hugh simpson
if the whole world was a honky-tonk,
and it revolved around an old jukebox,
we’d tell our troubles to the bar,
over cryin’ steel guitars,
and soon, they’d all be gone.
yeah, if you asked me what i thought,
i’d say: “we’d be better off,
“if the whole world was a honky-tonk.”
you could smoke that cigarette,
an’ be politically incorrect.
show off that red ’round your neck:
not hear a single soul object.
wouldn’t need no lawyers to decide,
who is wrong and who is right.
no need for big expensive trials:
brother, we’d just step outside.
if the whole world was a honky-tonk,
and it revolved around an old jukebox,
we’d tell our troubles to the bar,
over cryin’ steel guitars,
and soon, they’d all be gone.
yeah, if you asked me what i thought,
i’d say: “we’d be better off,
“if the whole world was a honky-tonk.”
wouldn’t have to pay no tax:
just set a tip jar in the back.
if we ran low, we’d p-ss the hat:
i bet we’d all be in the black,
if the whole world was a honky-tonk.
instrumental break.
and if you’re lookin’ love:
someone to heal that broken heart.
hey, buddy, you’d be in half.
you wouldn’t have to go that far.
if the whole world was a honky-tonk,
and it revolved around an old jukebox,
we’d tell our troubles to the bar,
over cryin’ steel guitars,
and soon, they’d all be gone.
if you asked me what i thought,
i’d say: “we’d be better off,
“if the whole world was a honky-tonk.”
life would be a three-chord song,
and the king would be george jones,
if the whole world was a honky-tonk.
instrumental fade.
