CHORUS:
E
I`m a honky tonk man, and I can`t seem to stop.
A
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music
E
of an old jukebox.

E B
But when my money`s all gone, I`m on the telephone,
A B E
callin` hey, hey, Mama, can your Daddy come home?

#1.
E B
I`m living fast and dangerously but I`ve got plenty
E
of company.
E B
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down,
A E
that`s when I want to see the lights of town.

CHORUS:
E
I`m a honky tonk man, and I can`t seem to stop.
A
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music
E
of an old jukebox.
E B
But when my money`s all gone, I`m on the telephone,
A B E
callin` hey, hey, Mama, can your Daddy come home?

#2.
E B
It takes a pretty little gal and a jug of wine..
A E
that`s what it takes to make a honky tonk mine.

With the jukebox a moanin` a honky tonk sound,
A E
that`s when I wanna lay my money down.
