Hank Thompson - Smoky the Bar lyrics

Smoky The Bar lights dimly glow It's good that way 'cause heartaches don't show Each hand holds a gla**, each gla** holds a beer Jukebox records play mid sorrow and cheer Lots of them are happy, they laugh and tell their jokes While lots of them are here because they're just lonely folks And then there are others, who's hearts wear a scar But you can't see them crying inside Smoky The Bar Smoky The Bar lights glowing dim They hardly notice when someone walks in Order up your drink to the music that's loud You'll find a friend some where in the crowd While the ashes are falling from the smoke that you inhale There's an old dream to recall or a new one that failed Should a tear betray your eye, if a memory slips too far Don't tell them that you're crying just say Smoky The Bar (Interlude) While the ashes are falling from the smoke that you inhale There's an old dream to recall or a new one that failed Should a tear betray your eye, if a memory slips too far Don't tell them that you're crying just say Smoky The Bar It's old Smoky The Bar
