When you are sad and lone-ly
3 -3 -4 -4 -4 -3
And have no place to go
3 -3 -4 -4 -4 -3’ 3
Just come to see me ba-by
3 -3 -3 -3 3 -3
And bring a-long some dough

And we’ll go, honk-y tonk-in, honk-y tonk-in,

We’ll go honk-y tonk-in, ‘round this town
When you and your ba-by have a fal-lin’ out
Just call me up sweet ma-ma and we’ll go step-pin’ out
And we’ll go honk-y tonk-in’, honk-y tonk-in’
Honk-y tonk-in’, hon-ey ba-by
We’ll go honk-y tonk-in’, ‘round this town
We’re goin’ to the city, to the city fair
If you go to the city, 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
