Honky Tonk (with Buddy Flett) Lyrics

When I first heard the sound, I was a child
Beat of the drum likes to drive me wild
Sound was a-comin across the track
Went on over and I never came back

Well the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin the blues in a honky-tonk key

Well, I turn up the singer on a sad song
Guitar mans got a Beale Street tone
Girls up front baby, all night long
Oh what a night to come home alone

Well the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin the blues in a honky-tonk key

Well the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin the blues in a honky-tonk key
Well the preacher taught him, daddy taught me
Singin the blues in a honky-tonk key
