[Verse 1]

There's a honky tonk on the edge of town

I used to call my second home

It's a place I'd go just to get away

When I wanted to be alone

Well early one morning, I had a fight with my darling

That went from bad to worse

It ended when she said, "your second home

Just became your first"

[Chorus]

Now the jukebox is my alarm clock

I wake up in a corner booth

I don't have a tab

Don't need no cab

'Cause the dance floor's my living room

Well I might die from a broken heart

But I'll never die of thirst

Now that my second home has become my first

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

Well, I don't have to pay no mortgage

I don't have to mow no lawn

A lot of friends come see me

Some stay until the break of dawn

I can paint the town without leavin the house

I can feel good 'til it hurts

Now that home sweet second home

Just became my first

[Chorus]

Now the jukebox is my alarm clock

I wake up in a corner booth

I don't have a tab

Don't need no cab

'Cause the dance floor's my living room

Well I might die from a broken heart

But I'll never die of thirst

Now that my second home has become my first

[Tag]

Lord, now that my second home has become my first
