Ole habits die hard, livers do too
Guess I'm just wasting away
Sittin' on this barstool, ordering a double
Cause I'm so lonesome and blue
You left today, now all I can say
Is pass me another bartender
I'm worn out n' weathered, just wasting away
Guess these are them honky tonk blues
Honky tonk blues, what can I do
He left me today, with nothing to say
Honky tonk blues, he cheated and used
So pass me another right away
Mistakes make you younger
Least that's what I've been told
Don't feel much younger, just a little too old
Worn out and tethered from a heartbreak man
I'll drink this neat till I understand
Honky tonk blues, what can I do
He left me today, with nothing to say
Honky tonk blues, he cheated and used
So pass me another right away
Oh honky tonk blues, he left but you stay
This ole barstool should have my damn name
Honky tonk blues, what can I do
He left me today, with nothing to say
Honky tonk blues, he cheated and used
But I'm gonna stay till I can't feel my face
Stumblin' out all over the place
Feel it in the mornin' but I'll face my fate
Sick with them honky tonk blues
