Where The Dim Lights Are The Dimmest

Lonnie Knipper-Larry Sparks/Southview Music Co., BMI

Tonight the music echoes from a bar just down the street
That's where my sweetheart's waiting, a new love there to meet
She'll laugh, dance, and mix it with the wild and wicked crowd
Where the dim lights are the dimmest and the music's always loud

(chorus)

What a shame to know I've lost her, it's something I can't bear
My mind is slowly breaking, knowing she don't care
The honky tonk now claims her, she's now one of the crowd
Where the dim lights are the dimmest and the music's always loud

I know she's out there dancing to a song that we love so
The liqour keeps her swinging, the wine keeps her afloat
I've lost her to another, it makes no difference now
Where the dim lights are the dimmest and the music's much too loud

(repeat chorus)
