honky to NK fever
.
Small town dreamer
A full-time piece of work
At least thats what my daddy says
I guess thats what you get
When your boys born with
That honky tonk fever
Hey jukebox play me the cure
Ill feed you quarters if you feed my soul
Somewhere between Americana and rock and roll
.
I could lose a day or two with the hippies out west
Or my Cajuns in the bayou
A sunset on Mobile
Theres something funny in the air
Were sipping shine from Carolina stills
And itd be gone again, oh well
At least I could pretend my sail
Aint stuck out in the wind
And this honky tonk fever would end
.
Country people and those down-home material girls
The kind you bring home to mama
Hot as Hollywood without the drama
Gimme, gimme that honky tonk fever
Hey, little lady, tonight youre the cure
That is if you wanna be
Its going down like the whiskey from Tennessee
.
I could lose a day or two hiding out in Texas
Anywhere that the cowgirls do
Sunrise on Nashville, another music city rally
In the valley of the fiddle and steel
And itd be gone again, oh well
At least I could pretend my sail
Aint stuck out in the wind
And this honky tonk fever would end
.
Lord, I got that
Honky tonk fever,
Hey, bartender pour me the cure
Ill buy a round if you got it
The cure for the honky tonk fever
Is at the bottom
