(Hank Williams)

Well, I left my home down on a rural route
I told my folks I'm goin' steppin' out
Forget the honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I went to a dance and wore out my shoes
Woke up this mornin' wishin' I could lose
That jumpin' honky tonk blues, that weary honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I stopped into every place in town
This city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues, yeah the honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues.

Gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
Get right back to my pappy's farm
Forget the honky tonk blues, yeah the honky tonk blues
Yeah Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues.

Don't wanna be bothered with the honky tonk blues...
