She sits on a barstool
with a bourbon in her hand
And listens to the music
of a local country band
In her cowboy boots and blue jeans,
she's a lonely man's dream
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk queen
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk queen,
And every night she searches
till she finds herself a king.
When the neon lights come on,
that's when she can be seen,
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk
queen.
There's one in every bar in Texas
From Beaumont to San Antonio
And in closing time she leaves
But she never leaves alone
This jukebox Cinderella
Cannot live with just one man
So she picks a total stranger
For another one -night stand
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk queen,
And every night she searches
till she finds herself a king.
When the neon lights come on,
that's when she can be seen,
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk queen.
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk queen,
In every night she searches
till she finds herself a king
When the neon lights come on,
that's when she can be seen
She's a fallen bourbon angel,
she's a honky -tonk queen
