I'm cooped up in a factory from seven until five
Doing things that really get me down
Trading my precious time for money trying to survive
Waiting for Friday to fin'ly roll around
Cause I'll be going honky tonking
I'll be going honky tonking all night long
I'll be going honky tonking
I'll be going honky tonking all night long
Middle -4 bars-
It's hard to get ahead today when I'm so far behind
Sometimes I think I am losing ground
Working my fanny off for nothing putting in my time
Hoping that Friday will fin'ly roll around
Cause I'll be going honky tonking
I'll be going honky tonking all night long
I'll be going honky tonking
I'll be going honky tonking all night long
I'll be going honky tonking
I'll be going honky tonking all night long
I'll be going honky tonking
I'll be going honky tonking all night long
