Honky Tonkin Lifestyle lyrics
Songwriters: Scruggs, Christopher;
I m out till four and I m up at six
And when I wake I have a fix
To try and cure the morning after blues
To help me make it through the day
So I can drink the night away
That honky tonkin lifestyle
Will get the best of you
I pay my fare and get on the bus
Cause I lost my keys and I drank too much
The only money I have s in my shoe
I hear the words roll through my head
That my folks and the preacher said
That honky tonkin lifestyle
Will get the best of you
Well I drink and drink and drink and drink some more
And though I feel high as a kite
I m laying on the floor
My friends tell me to lose the booze
And then they read the same old news
That honky tonkin lifestyle
Will get the best of you
I dance, drink liquor, beer, and wine
I try to have a happy time
But by the time I m thirty I ll be through
I try to turn to God and pray
But when I do I hear him say
That honky tonkin lifestyle
Will get the best of you
