Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I left my home down on the rural route
I told my Pa I was going stepping out
And get the honky tonk blues
Yeah, the honky tonk blues
Hey Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
[Verse 2]
Well, I stopped into every place in town
City life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues
Yeah, the honky tonk blues
Hey Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
[Verse 3]
Well, I went out last night, I wore out my shoes
Woke up this morning wishing I could lose
The jumping honky tonk blues
Yeah, 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 those honky tonk blues
Yeah, the honky tonk blues
And Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
[Verse 5]
Well, I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my Pappy's farm
And leave those honky tonk blues
Yeah, the honky tonk blues
Hey Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
Hey Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
Hey Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
[Verse 6]
Yeah
I've been on the road too long
It's getting lonely out here
Night after, night after, night after night
Let's go home, fellas
[Outro]
Honky tonk blues, woo
I got them honky tonk blues
