I walked into a honkey tonkey just the other day  I droped a nickle in the juke box just to hear it play  I didnt have no tune in mind, I didnt wait to choose  Just droped a nickle in the slot and I played the juke box blues    Theres a guy in there with an old tin horn  And a feller on an old banjo, and the man of the fiddle  He wasn't no slouch he could really drag that bow  Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired   I didnt hear him say, 'cause he cut loose on the steel guitar  And the juke box ran away  And I've herd something going strong  It must have been a drum  It gave that song a solid beat  Boy it was goin' some    I walked into a honkey tonkey just the other day  I droped a nickle in the juke box just to hear it play  I didnt have no tune in mind, I didnt wait to choose  Just droped a nickle in the slot and I played the juke box blues    I've played alot of juke boxes, most everyone in town  That's the first tune I've ever heard   That can make one night surround  Play the juke box blues, such a rythum I've never heard   I danced out both of my shoes
