| Well I left my home down on the rural route
|
| I told my paw I’m going steppin' out and get the
|
| Honky tonk blues
|
| Yeah the honky tonk blues
|
| Well Lord I got 'em
|
| I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues
|
| Well I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes
|
| Woke up this mornin' wishin' I could lose
|
| Them jumpin' honky tonk blues
|
| Yeah the honky tonk blues
|
| Well Lord I got 'em
|
| I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues
|
| Well I stopped into every place in town
|
| This city life has really got me down
|
| I got the honky tonk blues
|
| Yeah the honky tonk blues
|
| Well Lord I got em
|
| Got the ho-on-ky tonk blues
|
| I’m gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
|
| And scat right back to my pappy’s farm
|
| And leave these honky tonk blues
|
| Yeah the honky tonk blues
|
| Well Lord I got 'em
|
| I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues |
