Honky Tonk Blues

(album: Will The Circle Be Unbroken - 1972)

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.

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 jumping honkty tonk blues.
Lord I'm suffring with the honky tonk blues.
