Now I'm just a bartender and I don't like my work
But I don't mind the money at all
I see lots of sad faces and lots of bad cases
Of folks with their backs to the wall

But I need four walls around me to hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away

I can light up your smokes, I can laugh at your jokes
I can watch you fall down on your knees
I can close down this bar, I can gas up my car
I can pack up and mail in my key

But I need (four walls around me to hold my life)
To keep me from goin' astray
And a (honky-tonk angel to hold me tight)
To keep me from slippin' away

Now the smoke fills the air in this honky-tonk bar
And I'm thinkin' 'bout where I'd rather be
But I burned all my bridges, I sank all my ships
And I'm stranded at the edge of the sea

And I need (four walls around me to hold my life)
To keep me from going astray
I need a (honky-tonk angel to hold me tight)
To keep me from slipping away, yeah
