Honky-tonk blue is the color of my heartache

Since you said goodbye

Well, it's all that I can see

I just sit and cry lonely teardrops for you, darling

When I think of you

Your memory turns the room

Honky-tonk blue

Forgetting you has been twice as hard

As the whiskey on my breath

And empty bottles and crowded rooms

Are all that I've got left

Honky-tonk blue is the color of my heartache

Since you said goodbye

Well, it's all that I can see

I just sit and cry lonely teardrops for you, darling

'Cause when I think of you

Your memory turns the room

Honky-tonk blue (Let's go honky tonking)

The Mona Lisa is a work of art

But she ain't got a thing on me

'Cause I'm a living, breathing love gone wrong

Her masterpiece

Honky-tonk blue is the color of my heartache

Since you said goodbye

Well, it's all that I can see

I just sit and cry lonely teardrops for you, darling

'Cause when I think of you

Your memory turns the room

Honky-tonk blue

Yeah, when I think of you

Your memory turns the room

Honky-tonk blue
