Honky Tonk Man
Well, I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone hollering
"Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
Well, I'm living fast and dangerously
But I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
Well, that's when I wanna see the lights down town
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
When my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone hollering
"Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
It takes a pretty little girl and a jug of wine
Well, that's what it takes to make a honky tonk time
With the jukebox moaning those honky tonk sounds
Well, that's when I wanna lay my money down
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone hollering
"Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone hollering
"Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
Well, I'm living fast and dangerously
But I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
Well, that's when I wanna see the lights down town
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
When my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone hollering
"Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
It takes a pretty little girl and a jug of wine
Well, that's what it takes to make a honky tonk time
With the jukebox moaning those honky tonk sounds
Well, that's when I wanna lay my money down
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone hollering
"Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
