You Got to Honky Tonk
When you wake up, when you wake up in the morning
And life knocks you down without warning
You gotta pick up that six string
And try to ease that suffering
With some Hank, Haggard, Waylon, and Willie too
You got to honky tonk
You got to get down in the swamp
You gotta wake it up shake it up
Until your screamin' go cat go
You gotta make it real greasy and let it fry
Serve it up hotter than the Fourth of July
You got to honk
You got to honky tonk
When life has taken a toll on you
And you don't have a trust fund to dip into
You can't think about tomorrow
You better go drown all your sorrows
And put on, put on your dancing shoes
You got to honky tonk
You got to get down in the swamp
You gotta wake it up shake it up
Until your screamin' go cat go
You gotta make it real greasy and let it fry
Serve it up hotter than the Fourth of July
You got to honk
You got to honky tonk
If you grew up on the blues
There's just one thing you can do
You got to honky tonk
You got to get down in the swamp
You gotta wake it up shake it up
Until your screamin' go cat go
You gotta make it real greasy and let it fry
Serve it up hotter than the Fourth of July
You got to honk
You got to kick and stomp
You got to honk
You got to honky tonk
And life knocks you down without warning
You gotta pick up that six string
And try to ease that suffering
With some Hank, Haggard, Waylon, and Willie too
You got to honky tonk
You got to get down in the swamp
You gotta wake it up shake it up
Until your screamin' go cat go
You gotta make it real greasy and let it fry
Serve it up hotter than the Fourth of July
You got to honk
You got to honky tonk
When life has taken a toll on you
And you don't have a trust fund to dip into
You can't think about tomorrow
You better go drown all your sorrows
And put on, put on your dancing shoes
You got to honky tonk
You got to get down in the swamp
You gotta wake it up shake it up
Until your screamin' go cat go
You gotta make it real greasy and let it fry
Serve it up hotter than the Fourth of July
You got to honk
You got to honky tonk
If you grew up on the blues
There's just one thing you can do
You got to honky tonk
You got to get down in the swamp
You gotta wake it up shake it up
Until your screamin' go cat go
You gotta make it real greasy and let it fry
Serve it up hotter than the Fourth of July
You got to honk
You got to kick and stomp
You got to honk
You got to honky tonk
