Tom: G G Ahh let's go honky tonkin' C Let's go honky tonkin' G D Have a honky tonkin' good time with us G Ahh let's go honky tonkin' C Let's go honky tonkin' G D G Honky tonkin' round Texas G Well I'll put some diesel in the tank C Give that old Detroit a crank G D We'll sit back and let that silver eagle fly G Well up and down that Lonestar State C Let's have a honky tonkin' tail gate G D G 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 C Well my mom called me up G And she gave me my last warning A Said there'll be hell to pay D A E If I miss church this Sunday morning.
