Terry Allen
She was a honkytonker and he was a family man
And she showed him her gold teeth when heâd hold her little hand
And they met out on the highway at the Paradise Motel lounge
On Saturday nights when things werenât right between him and his wife in town
Chorus:
Theyâre just another couple on a high plains jamboree
Playinâ out those sad songs they understand
Just another couple makinâ juke box memories
Walkinâ into troubles hand in hand
She werenât no maid of cotton and he werenât no hell of a man
So they must have loved each other like only the lonely can
âCause they slow-danced through the neon like a sorrow through a song
Then they carried the tune to the motel room and they played it all night long
(Repeat Chorus)
