Honey (Open That Door)

(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?
