Dale Watson - Honkiest Tonkiest Beer Joint lyrics

rate me

It's been here for near on thirty years

Wish I had a dime for every time sombody cried a tear in their beer

And a penny for every smile and Ginny gave out

At the honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town

(Chorus)

45's are on the jukebox, some old some new

They say "Hello there, pull up a chair, what can I get for you?"

Well that's just small talk to help you feel at home when you come 'round

The honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town

(Guitar and steel solos...modulate one whole step)

If you're out on that side of town

You wanna shoot some pool or just shoot a cool one down

Rose's pickled eggs and sausage are by the pound

At the honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town

(Chorus)

45's are on the jukebox, some old some new

They say "Hello there, pull up a chair, what can I get for you?"

Well that's just small talk to help you feel at home when you come 'round

The honkiest tonkiest beer joint

The honkiest tonkiest beer joint

The honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town
