Honky Tonk


Well, I remember the sound since I was a child
Beat of the drum like to drive me wild
Sound was a commin' from across the track
Went off over and I never came back

Yeah the preacher taught him Daddy taught me
How to sing all the blues in a honky tonk key

Well I turn up the singer on a sad song
Guitar man's got a Beale Street tone
Girls up front baby all night long
Oh what a night to come home alone

Yeah the preacher taught him daddy taught me
Sing all the blues in a honky tonk key

Yeah the preacher taught him daddy taught me
Sing all the blues in a honky tonk key

The preacher taught him, daddy taught me
To sing all the blues in a honky tonk key
