Lyrics Honky Tonk Man - Merle Haggard

Honky Tonk Man

I never seen you look quite so sad
An' I never felt me feel quite so bad
An' I know we both feel that we’ve been had
I guess that we’re just not that strong
'Cause I lost my woman and you’ve lost your man
Who knows who’s right or who’s wrong?
But I still got my guitar and I’ve got a plan
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
An' we’ll get through the night the best way we can
It’s the best old pain killer since hurtin' began
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
I miss my woman an' you miss your man too
But there’s not a helluva lot that we can do
But cling to each other till the hurtin’s through
An' the hurt can only last just so long
You be my woman an' I’ll be your man
Even if just for a while
I still got my guitar and I’ve got a plan
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
An' we’ll get through the night the best way we can
It’s the best old pain killer since hurtin' began
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man
