Charlie Walker - Honky Tonk Blues lyrics

rate me

(Hank Williams)

Well, I left my home down on a rural route

I told my pa I'm goin' steppin' out

And get the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

I said the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

Hey Lord, I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues.

Well, I stopped into every join in town

This city life has really got me down

I got the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

I said the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

Well Lord, I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I danced all night I wore out my shoes

Woke up this mornin' wishin' I could lose

That jumpin' honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

I said the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

Well Lord, I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues.)

Well, I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm

And scat back to my pappy's farm

And lose the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

I said the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues)

Well Lord, I got 'em I got the honky tonk blues, oh Lord...
