Honky Tonker Video (MV)

Well, every evening when the news is over

And the moon is a climbing high

I crank up my old pickup trick

And baby down the road I fly

Just to find a spot down in the parking lot

Of a place they call Big Jeans

Then I walk on in and the night begins

In the same familiar scene



I'm a honky tonker

And I feel all right

Yeah, I'm a honker tonker

I'm a neon light



Well, my momma told me and my poppa told me

"Son there's more to life than beer

Why ain't you more like your brother Drew

He's a petroleum engineer

Why don't you cut your ties with all them old bar flies

And try to straighten up your life

You need to quit that drinkin'

Start a thinkin' 'bout a house, some kids and a wife"



But daddy, I'm a honky tonker

Yeah, and you can't dig that

I'm a honky tonker

I'm a juke joint cat



Yeah they tell me I'm lazy baby tell me I'm crazy

Tell me I'm not so smart

Just the same ole sins I say it's self-defense

Well, I sure got a happy heart

All right, all right



Well, every evening when the news is over

And the moon is a climbing high

I crank up my old pickup truck

And baby down the road, baby down the road I fly



I'm a honky tonker

Honey, that's my style

Said I'm a honky tonker

Yeah, I'm a deuces wild

Wild, wild, wild, wild, wild

I'm a honky tonker

And I can't help that

Yeah, I'm a honky tonker

Just a juke joint cat

Honky tonkin'

That's just fine

Yeah, honky tonkin'

Baby gonna walk no line

No, no, no
