Well, I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop

I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box

But when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone singing

Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?

Well now I'm living wild and dangerously

But I've got plenty of company

When the moon comes up

And the sun goes down

But I can't wait to see the lights of town

'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop

I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box

And when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone singing

Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?

I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop

I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box

And when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone singing

Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?

Hey now a pretty little girl and a jug of wine

Well, that's what it takes to make a honky tonk time

Juke box moaning those honky tonk sounds

I can't wait to lay my money down

'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop

I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box

But when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone singing

Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?

I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop

I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box

But when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone singing

Hey, hey mama, can your daddy come home?
