| I’ve made some good friends and I’ve had some bad fights
|
| And I’ve had my share of wasted nights
|
| I’ve seen husbands take the ring off their hand
|
| And I’ve seen a woman cheat on her man
|
| Yea I’ve had a few paychecks blown
|
| In the name of a good time and don’t you know
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk
|
| Some roadside joint full of country songs
|
| Laughin' and cryin', misery and fun
|
| And every kind of drinkin' that’s ever been done
|
| Yea I’ve seen a lot of life lived
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk like this
|
| I sing these songs and I play this guitar
|
| But I ain’t the first one to chase this star
|
| So here’s to the heroes of this redneck world
|
| Waylon and Willie, Hank and Merle
|
| They traveled round with a five piece band
|
| And I think you know where this music began
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk
|
| Some roadside joint full of country songs
|
| Laughin' and cryin', misery and fun
|
| And every kind of drinkin' that’s ever been done
|
| Yea I’ve seen a lot of life lived
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk like this
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk
|
| Some roadside joint full of country songs
|
| Laughin' and cryin', misery and fun
|
| And every kind of drinkin' that’s ever been done
|
| Yea I’ve seen a lot of life lived
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk
|
| It all happened in a honky tonk like this
|
| Honky tonk just like this |
