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
Somebody musta been a 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
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 went right down to see old 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
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, 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)
Now, honey won’t you open that door?
