Br5-49 - Honky Tonkin' Lifestyle lyrics

C. Scruggs

I'm out till four and I'm up at six

And when I wake I have a fix

To try and cure the morning after blues

To help me make it through the day

So I can drink the night away

That Honky Tonkin' Lifestyle

Will get the best of you

I pay my fair and get on the bus

Cause I lost my keys and I drank 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 I read the same old news

That Honky Tonkin' Lifestyle

Will get the best of you

I dance drink liqour, 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
