A Honky Tonk Piano

A Honky Tonk Piano I woke up all alone My money was all gone but I didn’t feel like cryin’ any tears A redhead I would guess Got me into this mess A honky tonk piano’s in my ears. I remember dancin’ Nothin’ ‘bout romancin’ Prob’ly left my money on the bar That seems more than likely My eyes ain’t so slightly Been drinkin’ my share of that Lone Star I should stop this drinkin’ That’s what I been thinkin’ Wonder who the redhead was I met. Guess I shouldn’t worry I ain’t in no hurry Don’t know what town I’m in I’ll bet. Guess I should take a wife Give up this ramblin’ life Been at this for God knows many years I see that neon sign And then I’m feelin’ fine A honky tonk piano’s in my ears. Yeah, there’s that neon sign I’m feelin’ mighty fine, A honky tonk piano’s in my ears. April, 2016
