Honkytonk Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well I've never seen you look quite so sad,
And I've never felt me feel quite so bad,
And I know we both feel that we have been had,
Well I guess they were just not that strong.
So I lost my woman and you lost your man,
And who knows who's right or who's wrong,
But I've got my guitar and I've got a plan,
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man!
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man,
And we'll get through this night the best way we can!
It's the best ol' pain killer since hurtin' began,
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man!
I miss that woman, you miss him too,
There's not a hell of a lot we can do,
But cling to each other 'till the hurtin' is through,
But the hurt can only last just so long.
You'll be my woman, I'll be your man,
Even if just for a while,
I've still got my guitar and I've got a plan,
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man!
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man,
And we'll get through this night the best way we can!
It's the best ol' pain killer since hurtin' began,
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man!
Throw your arms 'round this honky tonk man!
