I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop   I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox   But when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone   Hollerin' hey hey mama can your daddy come home      Well I'm living fast and dangerously I've got plenty of company   When the moon comes up and the sun goes down   That's when I want to see the lights of town   Cause I'm a honky tonk man...   [ guitar ]   It takes a purty little gal and a jug of wine   That's what it takes to make a honky tonk mind   The jukebox a moanin' honky tonk sound   That's when I want to lay my money down   Cause I'm a honky tonk man...
