Faron Young - Honky Tonk Song Lyrics
(Mel Tillis - Buck Peddy)Well, I got me a roomIn a cheap hotelMy head was a spinningAnd I didn't feel well.I laid right downTried to go to sleepBut the band was playingIn the joint underneath.I picked up my pillowWhen I covered up my headBut the band kept a playingAnd a shaking my bed.Honky tonk all night longHonky tonk same old songHonky tonk my money's all goneHonky tonk she done me wrong..I turned and I tossedBut I couldn't go to sleep'Cause the band kept a playingWith a honky tonk beat.--- Instrumental ---Well, I'm so blueMy baby's goneShe took all my moneyAnd left me all alone.I'm tryin' to forget herBut I don't know what to doThe honky tonk songKeeps a leaking through.I picked up my pillowAnd I covered up my headBut the band kept a playingAnd a shaking my bed.Honky tonk all night longHonky tonk same old songHonky tonk my money's all goneHonky tonk she done me wrong..I turned and I tossedBut I couldn't go to sleep'Cause the band kept a playingWith a honky tonk beat...
