Well, I left my home down on the Rural Route
Told my pa I was going stepping out
And get the honky tonk blues
The honky tonk blues
Lord, I got 'em
I got the honky tonk blues
Stopped into every place in town
This city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues
The honky tonk blues
Lord, I got 'em
I got the honky tonk blues
Went out last night, I wore out my shoes
Woke up this morning wishing I could lose
Those jumping honky tonk blues
The honky tonk blues
Lord, I got 'em
I got the honky tonk blues
I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my pappy's farm
And lose the honky tonk blues
The honky tonk blues
Lord, I got 'em
I got the honky tonk blues
