I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I'm living fast and dangerously but I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
That's when I want to see the lights of town
...................
I'm a honky tonk man...
It takes a purty little gal and a jug of wine
That's what it takes to make a honky tonk mind
With the jukebox a moanin' honky tonk sound
that's when I wanna lay my money down
