If The Whole World Was A Honky Tonk
Written：Bryon Simpson/Ashley Gorley/Wade Kirby
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
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 pass the hat,
I bet we'd all be in the black,
If the whole world was a honky-tonk.
<Instrumental>
And if you're lookin' for love,
Someone to heal that broken heart
Hey buddy, you'd be in luck
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 to fade>
