Hoyt Axton - Honky Tonk Music lyrics

[Verse 1] Every night i work the places Neon lights and lonely faces People laugh and drink away The evening' while i play I ask myself, "Why do I do it?" I guess there must be something to it Getting paid for doing something I'd be Doing anyway [Chorus] I'm playing me some honky tonk music That's the kind I like to play Playing me some honky tonk music That's the kind I like to play [Verse 2] Wish that I could have a dollar For every drunk that I've heard holler Every pa**ed out barrom brawler Sleeping off the fight For all the stories I've been told Guess I'd have a pot of gold If even just a single one Turned out to be right [Chorus] I'm playing me some honky tonk music That's the kind I like to play Playing me some honky tonk music That's the kind I like to play [Verse 3] Seen a lot of women lied to Even several times I've tried to In the night when it's getting light The women look so good Been in bars I didn't care for I didn't know what I was here for All in all I wouldn't change things Even if I could [Chorus/Outro] I'm playing me some honky tonk music That's the kind I like to play Playing me some honky tonk music That's the kind I like to play
