D

I’m out till four and I’m up at six

D A

And when I wake I have a fix

A D

To try and cure the morning after blues

D

To help me make it through the day

D G

So I can drink the night away

A

That honky tonkin’ lifestyle

A D

Will get the best of you

I pay my fare and get on the bus

Cause I lost my keys and I drink too much

The only money I have’s in my shoe

I hear the words roll through my head

That my folks and the preacher said

That honky tonkin’ lifestyle

Will get the best of you

Well I drink and drink

And drink and drink some more

And though I feel high as a kite

I’m laying on the floor

My friends tell me to lose the booze

And then they read the same old news

That honky tonkin’ lifestyle

Will get the best of you

I dance, drink liquor, beer and wine

I try to have a happy time

But by the time I’m thirty I’ll be through

I try to turn to God and pray

But when I do I hear him say

That honky tonkin’ lifestyle

Will get the best of you
