Honky Tonk Life

It started as a youngun' Daddy spent time in jail
Momma tried to raise me right but I was out raisin' hell
It was Hank and it was Waylon it was staying up all night long
I played about a hundred thousand old smokey bars
Couple times I even pawned my Ol' Gibson guitar
It's all part of this honky tonk life I'm living

The women get me sinning hanging out with the band
They say I'm paying my dues I dues the best that I can
This Rock & Roll dream
It's taking more than it's giving
It's all part of this Honky Tonk Life I'm living

The places and the faces hell they all look the same
When your drinking too much Whiskey and your using Cocaine
Slow it on down Creed that's what they always say
Hell if it were that easy do you think I'd be here
Playing in this bar for a six pack of beer
It's all part of this honky tonk life I'm living

The women get me sinning hanging out with the band
They say I'm paying my dues I dues the best that I can
This Rock & Roll dream
It's taking more than it's giving
It's all part of this Honky Tonk Life I'm living

The women get me sinning hanging out with the band
They say I'm paying my dues I dues the best that I can
This Rock & Roll dream
It's taking more than it's giving
It's all part of this Honky Tonk Life I'm living

This Rock & Roll dream
It's taking more than it's giving
It's all part of this honky tonk life I'm living

Out on these highways and byways
