Honky Tonk Blues Lyrics - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Well I left my home down on the rural route 

I told my paw I'm going steppin out and get the 

Honky tonk blues, 

Yeah the honky tonkblues 

Well lord I got 'em, 

I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues. 

Well I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes 

woke up this mornin wishin I could lose 

them jumpinhonky tonk blues, 

Yeah the honky tonk blues 

Well lord I got 'em, 

I got the ho-on-ky tonkblues.

Well I stopped into every place in town 

this city life has really got me down 

I gotthe honky tonk blues, 

Yeah the honky tonk blues 

Welllord I got em, 

got the ho-on-ky tonkblues. 

I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm 

And scat right back to my pappy's farm 

And leave thesehonky tonk blues, 

Yeah the honky tonkblues 

Well lord I got 'em, 

I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.

When I get home to my Ma and Pa, 

I know they're gonna lay down the law. 

About the honky tonk blues, 

Them jumpin' honkty tonk blues. 

Lord I'm suffrin' with the honky tonk blues.
