Lyrics for Song: Honey (Open That Door)
Lyrics for Album: The Essential [Epic] [2003]
(Mel Tillis)
Chorus:
Honey, honey
Honey won't you open that door
This is your sweet daddy don't you love me no more?
It's cold outside let me sleep on the floor
Honey, won't you open that door?
I honky-tonked around Dallas,
I got in a poker game
But somebody must've been cheatin'
I lost everything but my name.
Well, I walked halfway to Memphis
I finally got back home
But I'd been better off where I was
'Cause here's where things went wrong.
Chorus:
Honey, honey
Honey won't you open that door
This is your sweet daddy don't you love me no more?
It's cold outside let me sleep on the floor
Honey, won't you open that door?
--- Instrumental ---
I went downtown to see ol' Bob
I thought he was my friend
The landlord said, ''That Bob's not here
The Police done hauled him in!''
I ran right back to little honey's house
I got me a rockin' chair
Now honey if you don't open that door
I'm gonna rock on away from here.
Chorus:
Honey, honey
Honey won't you open that door
This is your sweet daddy don't you love me no more?
It's cold outside let me sleep on the floor
Honey, won't you open that door?
Chorus:
Honey, honey
Honey won't you open that door
This is your sweet daddy don't you love me no more?
It's cold outside let me sleep on the floor
Honey, won't you open that door?
Honey (Honey)
Honey (Honey)
Honey (Honey)
Honey (Honey)
Honey won't you open that door?
