i’m a honkytonk man and i can’t seem to stop
i love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
but when my money’s all gone i’m on the telephone
callin’ hey hey mama can your daddy come home
i’m livin’ fast and dangerously but i’ve got plenty of company
when the moon comes up and the sun goes down
that’s when i wanna see the lights of town
’cause i’m a honkytonk man and i can’t seem to stop
i love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
but when my money’s all gone i’m on the telephone
callin’ hey hey mama can your daddy come home
i’m a honkytonk man and i can’t seem to stop
i love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
but when my money’s all gone i’m on the telephone
callin’ hey hey mama can your daddy come home
it takes a purty little gal and a jug of wine
that’s what it takes to make a honkytonk mind
with the jukebox a moanin’ a honkytonk sound
that’s when i wanna lay my money down
i’m a honkytonk man and i can’t seem to stop
i love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
but when my money’s all gone i’m on the telephone
callin’ hey hey mama can your daddy come home
