Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I left my home down on the rural route
I told my Pa, I'm goin', steppin' out
And get the honky tonk blues hey, the honky tonk blues
Hey Lord I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
[Verse 2]
Well, I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes
Woke up this morning wishin' I could lose
Them jumpin' honky tonk blues hey, the honky tonk blues
Oh Lord I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
[Verse 3]
Well, 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 honky tonk blues
[Verse 4]
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
Oh Lord I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
