lyrics

Wrap me up in a blanket of smoke and whiskey
There won't be anybody waiting at home to miss me
Jukebox is gonna play my song
You know the one where someone's been done wrong
And I don't wanna be alone tonight
So don't take me home

Drop me off at the honky tonk
Drop me off at the honky tonk

It won't be long 'til this working day is through
And when it's over, well I know just where I'm going to
It's been so long they say I should forget about you
Well that's real easy to say but not so easy to do

But every cloud's gonna have a silver lining
My is where the neon lights are brightly shining
Jukebox is gonna play my song
You know the one where someone's been done wrong
And I don't wanna be alone tonight
So don't take me home

Drop me off at the honky tonk
Drop me off at the honky tonk
I don't wanna be alone tonight
So drop me off at the honky tonk

Wrap me up in a blanket of smoke and whiskey
There won't be anybody waiting at home to miss me
Jukebox is gonna play my song
You know the one where someone's been done wrong
And I don't wanna be alone tonight
So don't take me home

Drop me off at the honky tonk
Drop me off at the honky tonk
I don't wanna be alone tonight
So drop me off at the honky tonk

Such a huge fan of Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers from the very beginning. Their music is the ultimate good mood music. Now finding out about Jim's music after seeing them in concert, I cannot get enough of all of it! Fabulous! Mike Bason

I have been a fan of this band and it's previous incarnation (The Refreshments) for as long as I can remember. I have seen many shows here in Vegas, plus in Arizona and California. This particular show was definitely one for the ages. I am so happy to be able to revisit through this recording. Thanks Roger, PH, Nick, and Jim (and Boots too!) Stephen Sylvanie
