I walked into a honkey tonkey just the other day |
|
I droped a nickle in the juke box just to hear it play |
|
I didnt have no tune in mind, I didnt wait to choose |
|
Just droped a nickle in the slot and I played the juke box blues |
|
Theres a guy in there with an old tin horn |
|
And a feller on an old banjo, and the man of the fiddle |
|
He wasn't no slouch he could really drag that bow |
|
Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired |
|
I didnt hear him say, 'cause he cut loose on the steel guitar |
|
And the juke box ran away |
|
And I've herd something going strong |
|
It must have been a drum |
|
It gave that song a solid beat |
|
Boy it was goin' some |
|
I walked into a honkey tonkey just the other day |
|
I droped a nickle in the juke box just to hear it play |
|
I didnt have no tune in mind, I didnt wait to choose |
|
Just droped a nickle in the slot and I played the juke box blues |
|
I've played alot of juke boxes, most everyone in town |
|
That's the first tune I've ever heard |
|
That can make one night surround |
|
Play the juke box blues, such a rythum I've never heard |
|
I danced out both of my shoes |
