Well I left my home down on the rural route
Told my pa I was going stepping out
And get the honky tonk blues
Stopped into every place in town
This city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues
Went out last night I wore out my shoes
Woke up this morning wishing I could lose
Those jumping honky tonk blues
I`m gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my pappy`s farm
And lost those honky tonk blues
