Honky Tonk Blues - Hank Williams

Honky Tonk Blues

Honky Tonk Blues Lyrics

Hey, I left my home down on the rural route
I told my paw I'm going steppin' out
And get the Honky tonk blues
Hey, the honky tonk blues
Hey, Lord I got 'em
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues

Hey, I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes
Woke up this mornin' wishin' I could lose
Them jumpin' honky tonk blues
Hey, the honky tonk blues
How Lord I got 'em
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues

Hey, I stopped into every place in town
This city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues
Hey, the honky tonk blues
Hey, Lord I got 'em
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues

I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my pappy's farm
And leave these honky tonk blues
Hey, the honky tonk blues
How, Lord I got 'em
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues
