I got me a room in a cheap hotel
My head was a spinning and I didn't feel well
I laid right down tried to go to sleep
But the band was playing in the joint underneath
I picked up my pillow when I covered up my head
But the band kept a playing and a shaking my bed
Honky tonk all night long honky tonk same old song
Honky tonk my money's all gone honky tonk she done me wrong
I turned and I tossed and I couldn't go to sleep
The band kept a playing with a honky tonk beat
[ guitar - steel ]
Well I'm so blue when my baby's gone
She took all my money and she left me all alone
I'm trying to forget her but I don't know what to do
Cause the honky tonk song keeps a leaking through
I picked up my pillow when I covered up my head
But the band kept a playing and a shaking my bed
Honky tonk all night long
