If The Jukebox Took Teardrops

If the jukebox took teardrops

And the whiskey was free

If that old car in the parking lot

Drove home automatically

If every curl on a honky tonk girl

Didn't start those memories

Wouldn't it be a wonderful world

For somebody just like me

How long can a man keep goin'

Like every day's his last

I've paid off the rent and the government

Maybe I could pay off the past

If the jukebox took teardrops

And the whiskey was free

If that old car in the parking lot

Drove home automatically

If every curl on a honky tonk girl

Didn't start those memories

Wouldn't it be a wonderful world

For somebody just like me

Wouldn't I be on easy street

Livin' this life of mine

I could keep right on till the hurt's all gone

And it wouldn't cost me a dime

If the jukebox took teardrops

And the whiskey was free

If that old car in the parking lot

Drove home automatically

If every curl on a honky tonk girl

Didn't start those memories

Wouldn't it be a wonderful world

For somebody just like me

If every curl on a honky-tonk girl

Didn't start those memories

Wouldn't it be a wonderful world

For somebody just like me

If the jukebox took teardrops

And the whiskey was free
