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 tonkblues
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 jumpinhonky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonk blues
Well lord i got 'em,
I got the ho-on-ky tonkblues.
Solo
Well i stopped into every place in town
This city life has really got me down
I gotthe honky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonk blues
Welllord i got em,
Got the ho-on-ky tonkblues.
I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my pappy's farm
And leave thesehonky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonkblues
Well lord i got 'em,
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
When i get home to my ma and pa,
I know they're gonna lay down the law.
About the honky tonk blues,
Them jumpin' honkty tonk blues.
Lord i'm suffrin' with the honky tonk blues.
