honky tonk song

Carl Perkins

Got me 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

A band kept a playin' in the joint underneath
I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head
But the band kept a playin' and a shaken 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 so blue my baby's gone
She took all my money and she left me all alone
I'm tryin' to forget her but I don't know what to do
The honky tonk song keeps a leakin' through
I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head
But the band kept a playin' and a shaken 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
