Lyrics:
the one I was looking for
Sure wasn't her
I need a honky tonk
Down to the bone
Sipping something strong
cll night long
No matter when she walks in
She's
a honky-tonk Christmas
But I'll be over you by New Year's Eve.
[Instrumental]
''Blue Christmas'', turn it up I wanna hear it
So I can unwrap all them mem'ries
to be a honky tonk Christmas
But I'll be over you by New Year's Eve
Yeah, I'll be over you by New Year's Eve
well I fell down a honky tonk hole
and it's deep as it can be
through a cloud of smoke the neon lights are all I see
from a honky tonk hole
I'm
heart! Mmm, hmm
Yeeeeeah! Everybody clap your hands, stomp your boots, and sing along now
Long as we got honky-tonks, this country will be free
Cowboy
Ernest Tubb or George D Hay Wes Rose and here's to Hank
I used to sit around at night with my old beat up guitar
And I'd wonder how it felt to be a country
you just don't belong
In the cover of that fashion magazine
When your heart is in that honky tonk
Next to cold beer
Crank a little merle
Make my ole
neon crowd wish they were me
Could you hold me all night long
To every honky tonk dance hall song
Till them last call lights come on
Would you please
Let
the honky-tonk's fantasy
Tina Turner, the living legacy
And she's still got you tripping off the legs you see
Another chick they used to beg to see
Was Josephine
up to the bar
Some cry for fame, some cry for money
And some people reach for the stars
But when a honky tonk heart starts
Crying for a honky tonk
You
a match made in heaven
a couple honky-tonk hearts
collided that night
in the dark
two strangers in a bar
two strangers in a bar
We went from hello
what's
of that band
and dance to the honky tonk waltz
get up and get off that bar stool
don't think of your problems or faults
lead her by the hand, out in
the radio blastin'
Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancin'
What was I thinkin'?
Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay
But that crossed my mind a little
the radio blastin'
Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancin'
What was I thinkin'?
Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay
But that crossed my mind a little
my heart
I only hope that someday you get
Them low down blues
In some smokey honky tonk
You looked down at your shoes
You'll think about that
felt us drum apart
And every step you took
Was a stomp upon my heart
I onty hope that someday you get
Them low down blues
In some smokey honky tonk
thanking God for niggas like Iceberg Slim
And the chick the honky's ran to see
She was the honky-tonk's fantasy
Tina Turner, the living legacy
And she's
her yet
Go back you fool while you can
You wonder around the honky tonks acting fancy free
So blinded by those tavern lights that you can't see
learned how to honky-tonk moan
And I learned how to sleep in
A different bed every night
Sometimes we slept in the car
Lots of times we slept in some old
And all those little honky-tonk joys
Baby, what's the point?
Ain't no thing, ain't no thing
I'm standing in the pouring rain
And like I've never been
her yet
Go back you fool while you can
You wonder around the honky tonks acting fancy free
So blinded by those tavern lights that you can't see
Now this all started in a honky tonk
Just the other side of town
A girl come in took a stool by me
Ordered gin and drank it down
She lit up a cigarette,
Tulsa Town Choking on the Texas Dust
Pack it up boys he says to them in a high pitched yodeling yell
When the Honky Tonk lights smear into the night
way down hear in Dixie playing honky tonk music
Keepin' some joint a jumpin' every night of the week
Lord knows it's hard to keep a dance hall woman
