Dim Lights, Thick Smoke
Dwight Yoakam

Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music

It's the only kind of live you'll ever understand

Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music

You'll never look at your wife, you go home loving mine


At home and little children,... and evil

Our house filled with love or hugs, that true

You'd rather have a drink with the bourbon kind you need it

And the only home you know, that ṗub down the street


Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music

It's the only kind of live you'll ever understand

Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music

You'll never look at your wife, go home loving mine


Good thinking and fixing to a honky-tonk made it

When you left your loving family life back, right back where you ran

So go on and have your fun, but you won't always look so smart

When some day that lonely bar brake your honky-tonk heart


Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music

It's the only kind of live you'll ever understand

Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music

You'll never look at your wife, to a home loving mine

Oh You'll never look at your wife, to a home loving mine


Dim Lights, Thick Smoke, and loud, loud music

You'll never look at your wife, to a home loving mine
