If your paycheck depends on 
The weather and the clock  
If your conversation calls for 
A little more than a coffee pot 
If you need to pour your heart out 
And try to rectify some situation 
That you're facing  
Contact your American Honky-Tonk Bar Association  

When Uncle Sam dips in your pocket  
For most things you don't mind  
But when your dollar goes to all of those  
Standing in a welfare line  
Well rejoice you have a voice  
If you're concerned about the destination  
Of this great nation  
It's called the American Honky-Tonk Bar Association  

It represents the hardhat 
Gunrack, achin'-back 
Over taxed, flag-wavin', fun-lovin' crowd 
They're heart is in the music  
And they love to play it loud  
There's no forms or applications  
There's no red tape administrations  
It's the American Honky-Tonk Bar Association 

We're all one big family 
Throughout the cities and the towns  
We don't reach for handouts 
we reach for those who are down  
And every local chapter has a seven day a week  
Available consultation 
For your frustration  
It's called the American Honky-Tonk Bar Association  

It represents the mud flaps 
Six pack, beer crack 
Over-taxed, flag-wavin', fun-lovin' crowd  
They're heart is in the music  
And they love to play it loud  
There's no forms or applications  
There's no red tape administrations  
It's the American Honky-Tonk Bar Association
