Bright lights and country music, a bottle and a glass.

I'll say those bright lights and country music.

A table by the bandstand, a bottle filled with wine.

Honky-tonks were made for men with women on their minds.

And nothing else can take away this loneliness of mine.

Quite like those bright lights and country music.
