Lyrics for Song: 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues
Lyrics for Album: Country Music Then and Now [Mercury] [1972]



(Don Reid - Harold Reid)



I keep the radio on most all night long

And listen to the songs they play

Sometimes I hum, tap along with my thumb

Listen to the words they say.



And I have to admit those yesterday hits

Take me back a year or two

I get those 1953 Dear John

Honky Tonk Blues for you.

Get those 1953

Dear John Honky Tonk Blues.



And I need help when I hear No Help Wanted

Rememberin' where we first heard Lovesick Blues

Old songs make me wonder what you're doing

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues.



--- Instrumental ---



Gonna play this song for

Rollin' John the Wild Side Of Life

It's Rolly Polly a golden oldie

For Carl and his brand new wife.



Well, it makes me feel sad but

It ain't half bad remembering the things I'd do

I get those 1953 Hey,

Joe Hop A Bop Blues for you.



Get those 1953 Hey

Joe Hop A Bop Blues for you.



And I need help when I hear No Help Wanted

Rememberin' where we first heard Lovesick Blues

Old songs make me wonder what you're doing

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues...
