A short of Honky Tonk Drinkin' Man
southern rock country ro
Lyrics
All alone in a bed down in Austin, Texas.
Waitin’ for the sunlight to go down.
Sometimes I can put away my anger.
And the feeling of wanting you around.
Yeah, I pick up my guitar and I go to work now.
Singin’ my life out in the bars.
Letting my emotions out for drinks and tips,
Yeah babe, still wonderin’ how you been and where the hell you are.
Cause I’m a honky tonk drinkin’ kinda’ man,
Yeah babe, give me a shot of jack black and put a statocaster in my hand.
Well now the ladies down in Austin, Texas they understand.
Yeah, that I’m a honky tonk drinkin’ kinda’ man.
Well I met a girl that I feel kinda’ close to.
She’s not my lover, she is my best friend.
Well now I know she cares for me with true love and affection.
Unlike you bitch, she’s not going to hurt me in the end.
There’s a blonde on the front row babe, she’s looking at me.
For a moment she reminded me of you.
She looks like the kind of girl I’d like to know.
Whoa lord, to help loose all these faded memories of you.
Cause I’m a honky tonk drinkin’ kinda’ man,
Yeah, give me a shot of jack black and put a statocaster in my hand.
Yeah babe, well all the ladies down in Austin, Texas will all gonna’ understand.
Yeah, that I’m a honky tonk drinkin’ kinda’ man.
