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 fallin' out

Call me up sweet mama

And we'll go steppin' 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
