Dead At The Honky Tonk Lyrics by Post Malone

[Verse 1: Post Malone]
Knee-deep in the Bulleit
One foot in the dirt
Yeah, his bloodshot eyes are empty
As a Monday mornin' church
On a stool in the corner
Where he's been all week
Only way I know he's breathin'
Is he just took a drink?

[Pre-Chorus: Post Malone]
And he keeps headin' toward the neon light

[Chorus: Post Malone]
There's a hole in his heart down
At the hole in the wall
They found him with his hand wrapped
Around a whiskey poured too strong
There ain't no murder weapon
Just a note that says she's gone
And if they put it in the paper
Then it wouldn't say much at all
One man dead at the honky tonk

[Verse 2: Post Malone]
We all saw it comin' from a mile away
We knew that her goodbye would put him in the grave
And, no, she won't go to prison, but he's doin' life
She tied him to the bar and let that firewater rise

[Pre-Chorus: Post Malone]
Her leavin' sent him to the other side

[Chorus: Post Malone]
There's a hole in his heart down
At the hole in the wall
They found him with his hand wrapped
Around a whiskey poured too strong
There ain't no murder weapon
Just a note that says she's gone
And if they put it in the paper
Then it wouldn't say much at all
One man dead at the honky tonk

[Bridge: Post Malone]
He's leanin' on that bottle
And it's cuttin' like a knife
And he keeps headin' toward the neon light

[Chorus: Post Malone]
There's a hole in his heart down
At the hole in the wall
They found him in there
Drownin' in a whiskey waterfall
There ain't no murder weapon
Just a note that says she's gone
And if they put it in the paper
Then it wouldn't say much at all
One man dead at the honky tonk
One man dead at the honky tonk
One man dead at the honky tonk
One man dead at the honky tonk
