Charlie Walker - Honky Tonk Song lyrics

(Mel Tillis - Buck Peddy)

I got me a room in a cheap hotel

My head was a spinnin' and I didn't feel well

I laid right down and tried to go to sleep

The band was playing in the joint underneath

I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head

But the band kept a playing and a shaking my bed.

Honky tonk same old song honky tonk all night long

Honky tonk my money's all gone honky tonk she done me wrong

I turned and I tossed but I couldn't go to sleep

'Cause the band kept a playing with a honky tonk beat.

--- Instrumental ---

My baby's gonna left me and I'm feeling blue

She took all my money I'm a telling you

I'm tryin' to forget her but I don't know what to do

The honky tonk song keeps a leaking through

I turned and I tossed but I couldn't go to sleep

'Cause the band kept a playing with a honky tonk beat.

Honky tonk same old song honky tonk all night long

Honky tonk my money's all gone honky tonk she done me wrong

I turned and I tossed but I couldn't go to sleep

'Cause the band kept a playing with a honky tonk beat...
