Honky Tonk
When I first heard the sound, I was a child
Beat of the drum like to drive me wild
Sound was a-comin across the track
Went on over and I never came back
Well, the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin' the blues in a honky tonk key
Well, I turn up the singer on a sad song
Guitar man's got a Beale Street tone
Girls up front, baby, all night long
Oh, what a night to come home alone
Well, the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin' the blues in a honky tonk key
Well, the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin' the blues in a honky tonk key
Preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin' the blues in a honky tonk key
