Got me room in a cheap hotel

My head was a spinnin' and I didn't feel well

I laid right down and tried to go to sleep

A band kept a playin' in the joint underneath

I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head

But the band kept a playin' and a shaken my bed

Honky tonk all night long

Honky tonk same old song

Honky tonk my money's all gone

Honky tonk she done me wrong

I turned and I tossed and I couldn't go to sleep

'Cause the band kept a playin' with a honky tonk beat

I'm so blue my baby's gone

She took all my money and she left me all alone

I'm tryin' to forget her but I don't know what to do

The honky tonk song keeps a leakin' through

I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head

But the band kept a playin' and a shaken my bed

Honky tonk all night long

Honky tonk same old song

Honky tonk my money's all gone

Honky tonk she done me wrong

I turned and I tossed and I couldn't go to sleep

'Cause the band kept a playin' with a honky tonk beat
