Lyrics for Song: Honky Tonkin'
Lyrics for Album: The Best of the Early Years [Music Mill] [2006]



(Hank Williams)



When you are sad and lonely and have no place to go

Come to see me baby and bring along some dough

And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby

We'll go honky tonkin' round this town.



--- Instrumental ---



When you and your baby have a falling out

Call me up sweet mama and we'll go stepping out

And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby

We'll go honky tonkin' round this town.



--- Instrumental ---



We're goin' to the city to the city fair

If you go to the city baby you will find me there

And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby

We'll go honky tonkin' round this town.



--- Instrumental ---



We're goin' honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby

We'll go honky tonkin' round this town...
