I'm a honky tonk man
And I just can't stop
I like to give the girls a whirl
To the music of an old jukebox
But when that money's all gone
I'm on the telephone
Howling hey hey mama
Can your daddy come home
Well, a deck of cards
And a jug of wine
That's what it takes
To make a honky tonk mind
The jukebox moaning
A honky tonk sound
That's when I wanna
Lay my money down
Cause I'm a honky tonk man
And I just can't stop
I like to give the girls a whirl
To the music of an old jukebox
But when that money's all gone
I'm on the telephone
Howling baby, baby, baby
Can your daddy come home
Well I'm living fast
But didn't it dangerously
But I've got plenty
Of a company
When the moon comes up
And the sun goes down
That's when I want
To see the lights of town
Cause I'm a honky tonk man
And I just can't stop
I like to give the girls a whirl
To the music of an old jukebox
But when that money's all gone
I'm on the telephone
I just say hey hey mama
Can your daddy come home
I just say hey hey mama
Can your daddy come home
I just say hey hey mama
Can your daddy come home
