Ahh let's go honky tonkin'
C5
Let's go honky tonkin'
       G5                            D5
Have a honky tonkin' good time with us
G5
Ahh let's go honky tonkin'
C5
Let's go honky tonkin'
      G5       D5     G5
Honky tonkin' round Texas

                   G5
Well I'll put some diesel in the tank
          C5
Give that old Detroit a crank
          G5                              D5
We'll sit back and let that silver eagle fly
             G5
Well up and down that Lonestar State
             C5
Let's have a honky tonkin' tail gate
          G5                    D5        G5
And don't forget to kiss your baby good bye

Stick out a thumb and bum a ride
Hitch-hike across the country side
Come see why they call this place God's country
Well criss-cross in the Colorado
From Amarillo to Zapata
Every town along the way from A to Z

        C5
Well my mom called me up
        G5
And she gave me my last warning
      A5
Said there'll be hell to pay
          D5           A5       E5
If I miss church this Sunday morning.
