Moe Bandy - Honky Tonk Queen lyrics

rate me

(Bobby Hicks)

Well, everything was goin' my way so I pressed my luck and called Moe today

To see if he was still around

Well, I shouldn't have answered the telephone I knew when I did that it was wrong

When I found out who it was.

Well, it was just a matter of time and we're out on the town drinking wine

When I saw my dream come true

She's walkin' in the Do Drop Inn when Joe hit the brakes and we went in a spin

And ended up in the parking lot.

Ah, she's a beauty she's a skag

She's got class aw come on now that little honky tonk queen

Well, Moe I've looked far and wide

You better look again when you ain't high at that honky tonk queen.

--- Instrumental ---

We went inside and she was sittin' there with lovely make up and beautiful hair

So I asked that gal to dance

I tried my best to really stress that girl don't look right in that dress

But you never heard a word.

Ah, she's a beauty she's a skag

She's got class aw come on now that little honky tonk queen

Well, Moe I've looked far and wide

You better look again when you ain't high at that honky tonk queen.

--- Instrumental ---

As they danced he took her hand spun her around and pulled her in

Then he spun her a little too hard

And I started wondering when she said her name was Bill

Then her wig came off and I's ready to kill

That joker dressed like a female.

She's a beauty not so loud she's got style come on pal

That little honky tonk queen

Well Joe you've looked far and wide

But I wanna look again Moe when I'm high

For a honky tonk queen.

I told you Joe somethin' didn't just look right to me

Now I've heard enough Moe

Man you shoulda seen the look on your face

Hey, I don't wanna hear it no more.

Yeah, you don't wanna look no more do you

I don't wanna drink no more either

What is that stuff you're drinkin' Joe

How could you do somethin' like that...
