Honky Tonk Blues

(album: There's A Little Bit Of Hank In Me - 1980)

Well I left my home down on a rural route I told my folks I'm going stepping out
Forget the honky tonk blues hey the honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues

Well I went to a dance and wore out my shoes
Woke up this morning wishing I could lose
That jumping honky tonk blues that weary honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord I got 'em I got the honky 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
Yeah Lord I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues
Gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm get right back to my pappy's farm
Forget the honky tonk blues yeah the honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues
Don't wanna be bothered with the honky tonk blues
