Well, it won't be long now until that old sun goes down
And darkness helps me hide my shameful tears
My wife works all night long for a man who's halfway gone
She's a barmaid in the Honky Tonk downstairs It's a shame she wears the name of a man that's locked and chained
To a bottle that's destroyed all hopes and cares
To the men with hungry eyes she works and hides her pride
