(Hank Williams)

Hey, I left my home down on a rural route
Told my folks' I'm goin' stampin' out
And get the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues.)

Hey, the honky tonk blues (hey. the honky tonk blues)
Hey Lord, I got 'em
I got the honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues.)

Well, I went to a dance and I wore out my
Woke up this morning wishing I could lose
Them jumpin' honky tonk blues (honky tonk blues.)

Hey, the honky tonk blues (hey, the honky tonk blues)
'Cause Lord, I got 'em
I got the honky tonk blues (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, hey the honky tonk blues

Oh Lord I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues
I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And get back to my pappy's farm.

And leave these honky tonk bluess (honky tonk blues)
Yeah, the honky tonk bluess (honky tonk blues)
Oh Lord, I got 'em, I got the honky tonk blues...
