I let the whiskey and the women get to me A little too much sometimes I don't know why I let them do it I guess it's 'cause it feels so fine I can't help it I got the habit I got that honky tonk habit I'm hooked on that honky tonk life Love is a risky business I've seen a lotta good men die I always have to gamble on a good lookin' woman With that want some lovin' look in her eyes I can't help it I got the habit I got that honky tonk habit I'm hooked on that honky tonk life Chorus: Honky tonk music Honky tonk wine Honky tonk women keep me satisfied I can't help it I got the habit I got them honky tonk habits I'm hooked on the honky tonk life Let the rest of the world keep doing Exactly what they want to do 'Cause it don't bother me 'Cause that's exactly what I'm going to do I can't help it I got the habit I got that honky tonk habit I'm hooked on that honky tonk life Chorus
