A rigety honky tonk tune in the old back room jukebox
Is makin' the old truck stop an all night hop that rocks
I get me a two bit gig while they check my rig I dig that melody
So play me a honky tonk tune it's home sweet home to me
Swinging singing sweet harmony
Tickle the eighty eight till the freight on the interstate is late
There are plenty of swell cafes at the old highway truck stop
Instead of a greasy spoon a brand new coffee shop
And maybe a way out tune like Claire DeLune but where's the melody
Just give me a honky tonk tune it's home sweet home to me
[ piano - guitar ]
Swing it sing it sweet harmony
Tickle the eighty eight till the freight on the interstate is late
They're planning a swell cafe at the old highway truck stop
Instead of a greasy spoon a brand new coffee shop
And maybe a way out tune like Claire DeLune but where's the melody
Just give me a honky tonk tune it's home sweet home to me
Just give me a honky tonk tune it's home sweet home to me
Just give me a honky tonk tune it's home sweet home to me
