Honky Tonk Man
By Johnny Horton


Chorus:
                E
I'm a honkytonk man and I can't seem to stop 
                           A                                E
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox 
                        B
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone 
           A                      B          E 
Hollerin, "Hey-hey, mama can your daddy come home?" 

E                     B
I'm livin' fast an' a-dangerously 
                       E
But I've got plenty of company 
         E                     B
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down 
A                           B
That's when I wanna see the lights of town 


Chorus

Solo

Chorus 

It takes a pretty little gal and a jug of wine 
That's what it takes to make a honkytonk, mine 
With the juke box a-moanin', a honkytonk sound 
That's when I wanna lay my money down
