E                                  B7 
I went honky tonkin' last Saturday night 
                                      E 
Dancin' and prancin' beneath the neon lights 
                          E7                 A  
Pocket full of silver and not a  care in the world 
               E                  B7         E  
Havin' fun and flirtin' with them honky tonk girls 
 
Honky tonkin' baby, I'm gonna make you mine 
Eyes that sparkle like the stars, lips that's sweeter than wine 
Two step with ole' Willie, and slow dance with ole' Merle 
Goin' round in circles with them honky tonk girls  
 
E                            A  
Honky tonk girls, honky tonk girls 
           B7                                       E 
With their big hair and their rhinestones and their pearls 
                  E7         A 
Honky tonk girls, honky tonk girls 
          B7 
Well come Saturday night well I'm getting' tight 
                     E 
With them honky tonk girls 
 
Lead 
 
All day I'm workin' hard pushin' this broom around 
Thinkn' 'bout the things I'll do, goin' out on the town 
When that yellow moon comes shinin' on this old world 
I'll be makin' love to my honky tonk girl
