"Close Up The Honky Tonks" was written by the great Red Simpson and recorded by Buck Owens & The Buckaroos in 1964. Charlie Walker also recorded the song that year.

Lyrics

She's in some honky tonk, tonight I know.
She's dancing where the music's loud, and lights are low.
In a crowded bar she likes to hang around.
And as long as there's a honky tonk, she'll never settle down.

Close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors.
Don't let the one I love, go there any more.
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key.
And, maybe the one I love will, come back to me.

(LEAD GUITAR AND STEEL INSTRUMENTAL)

I wish I had the power to turn back the time.
And live again the hours when she was all mine.
Lord it hurts to see her with that crowd downtown.
And as long as there's a honky tonk, she'll never settle down.

Close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors.
Don't let the one I love, go there any more.
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key.
And, maybe the one I love will, come back to me.
Maybe the one I love will come back to me.
