Lyrics:

Hawke

Every night I work in places neon light and lonely faces
People dance and drink away the evening while I play
I ask myself why do I do it I guess that thers' just something to it
Getting paid for something I'd be doing anyway
I wish that I could have a dollar
For every drunk that I've hear hollar
Every passed out bar room brawler sleeping off a fight
And all the stories I've been told
I guess I'd have a pot pf gold
If even just a single one had turned out to be right
Playing me some honky tonk music
That's the kind I like to play
Playing me some honky tonk music
That's the kind I like to play
I've seen a lot of girls get lied to
And I'll admit there's time I tried too
Some nights when it's getting late the woman looks so fine
I played in bars I didn't care for
I didn't know what I was there for
But all in all I wouldn't change things even if I could
Playing me some honky tonk music
That's the kind I like to play
Playing me some honky tonk music
That's the kind I like to play
