I got
me a
room in a cheap hotel
My head was spinning and I didn't feel well
I laid right down, tried to go to sleep
But the band kept a -playing
in the joint underneath
I picked up my pillow,
I covered up my head
But the band kept a -playing
and a -shaking my bed
Honky -tonk, all night long
Honky -tonk, same old song
Honky -tonk, she done me wrong
Honky -tonk, my money's all gone
I turned and I tossed
and I couldn't go to sleep
Cause the band kept a -playin'
with a honky -tonk beat
Well, I'm so blue cause my baby's gone
She took all my money
and left me all alone
I'm tryin' to forget her
but I don't know what to do
Cause the honky -tonk song
keeps a -leakin' through
I picked up my pillow,
I covered up my head
But the band kept a -playin'
and a -shakin' my bed
Honky tonk, all night long
Honky tonk, same old song
Honky tonk, my money's all gone
Honky tonk, she done me wrong
I turned and I tossed
and I couldn't go to sleep
Cause the band kept a -playin'
with a honky tonk beat
I'm going
Well, I caught you honky -tonking
with my best friend
What I should have done
was quit you, baby, way back then
Now I'm too old to leave,
but I still get sold
When you come home
a -feelin' for the knob on the door
I pick up my pillow, covered up my head
But the band kept a -playin'
and a -shakin' my bed
Honky tonk, all night long
Honky tonk, same old song
Honky tonk, my money's all gone
Honky tonk, she done me wrong
I turned and I tossed
and I couldn't go to sleep
Cause the band kept a -playin'
with a honky tonk beat
