Il testo della Honky tonker

Well, every evening when the news is over
And the moon is a climbing high
I crank up my old pickup trick
And baby, down the road i fly

Just to find a spot down in the parking lot
Of a place they call big jeans
Then i walk on in and the night begins
In the same familiar scene

I'm a honky tonker
And i feel all right
Yeah, i'm a honker tonker
I'm a neon light

Well, my momma told me and my poppa told me
Son there's more to life than beer
Why ain't you more like your brother drew
He's a petroleum engineer

Why don't you cut your ties with all them old bar flies
And try to straighten up your life
You need to quit that drinkin'
Start a thinkin' 'bout a house, some kids and a wife

But daddy, i'm a honky tonker
Yeah, and you can't dig that
I'm a honky tonker
I'm a juke joint cat

Yeah, they tell me i'm lazy, baby, tell me i'm crazy
Tell me i'm not so smart
Just the same ole sins i say it's self-defense
Well, i sure got a happy heart, all right, all right

Well, every evening when the news is over
And the moon is a climbing high
I crank up my old pickup truck
And baby down the road, baby down the road i fly

I'm a honky tonker
Honey, that's my style
Said i'm a honky tonker
Yeah, i'm a deuces wild
Wild, wild, wild, wild, wild

I'm a honky tonker
And i can't help that
Yeah, i'm a honky tonker
Just a juke joint cat

Honky tonkin', that's just fine
Yeah, honky tonkin'
Baby, gonna walk no line
No, no, no
