When you are sad and lonely and have no place to go
Come to see me baby and bring along some dough
And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby
We'll go honky tonkin' round this town.


When you and your baby have a falling out
Call me up sweet mama and we'll go stepping out
And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby
We'll go honky tonkin' round this town.


We're goin' to the city to the city fair
If you go to the city baby you will find me there
And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby
We'll go honky tonkin' round this town.


We're goin' honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honky tonkin', honey baby
We'll go honky tonkin' round this town...
