Honky Tonk Heroes

Low down leavin' sun

Done did everything that needs done

Woe is me, why can't I see

I'd best be leavin' well enough alone?

Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights

Keep a-hauntin' me in memories

Well, there's one in every crowd, for cryin' out loud

Why was it always turnin' out to be me?

Where does it go? The good Lord only knows

It seems like it was just the other day

I was down at Green Gables, a-hawkin' them tables

And generally blowin' all my hard earned pay

Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes

There weren't another other way to be

For lovable losers, no account boozers

And honky tonk heroes like me, hey, hey

Where does it go? The good Lord only knows

It seems like it was just the other day

I was down at Green Gables, hawkin' them tables

Generally blowin' all my hard earned pay

Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes

There weren't another other way to be

For lovable losers and no account boozers and

Honky tonk heroes like me

Where do we go? The good Lord only knows

And it seems like it was just the other day

I was down at Green Gables, hawkin' them tables and

Generally blowin' all of my hard earned pay, well

Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes

There weren't another other way to be

For them lovable losers and no account boozers and

Honky tonk heroes like me, yeah
