Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, And Loud Music Songtext
von New Riders of the Purple Sage

Can I buy a drink? (yeah)

Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud, loud music
Is the only kind of life you′ll ever understand
Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
You'll never make a wife to a home-lovin′ man

A home and little children mean nothing to you
A house filled with love and a husband that's true
You'd rather take a drink with the first guy you meet
And the only home you′ll know is the club down the street


Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud, loud music
Is the only kind of life you′ll ever understand
Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
You'll never make a wife to a home-lovin′ man

I'm drinking and dancing to a honky-tonk bang
Is the only kind of life you′ll ever understand
Go home and have your fun, you think you've played it smart
I′m sorry for you and your honky-tonk heart

Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud, loud music
Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand
Dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
You'll never make a wife to a home-lovin′ man
