Give Me a Honky Tonk

© words & music: J. Hughes

Intro -8 bars-

There's a lot of good old beer joints down in Texas
Where the people laugh and dance all night long
They like their music country down in Texas
All those cheating drinking truck driving songs

Give me a honky tonk anywhere in Texas
And a lady who'll dance and hold me tight
And though it may not be quite like heaven
Give me a honky tonk in Texas tonight

Middle -8 bars-

There's a lot of lovely ladies down in Texas
Some brag that they're the finest in the land
Well I don't know if Texas holds the record
But the ladies sure know how to treat a man

Give me a honky tonk anywhere in Texas
And a lady who'll dance and hold me tight
And though it may not be quite like heaven
Give me a honky tonk in Texas tonight

Give me a honky tonk anywhere in Texas
And a lady who'll dance and hold me tight
And though it may not be quite like heaven
Give me a honky tonk in Texas tonight

Give me a honky tonk in Texas tonight
