Lyrics

[Intro]
| B - | - - | - E | - - |
| - - | - - |

[Chorus]
                      E
Well 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 of an old
juke box
E
 But when my money's all gone,
B
 I'm on the telephone singing
E
Hey hey mama can your daddy come home

[Verse 1]
         E                      B
Well now I'm living wild and dangerously
    A                     E
But I've got plenty of company
                                  B
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
     A                       E
Well I can't wait to see the lights of town

[Chorus]
                        E
'Cause 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 of an old
juke box
E
 But when my money's all gone,
B
 I'm on the telephone singing
E
Hey hey mama can your daddy come home

[Chorus]
                      E
Well 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 of an old
juke box
E
 But when my money's all gone,
B
 I'm on the telephone singing
E
Hey hey mama can your daddy come home

[Verse 2]
Hey now,
  E                           B
a pretty little girl and a jug of wine
     A                              E
Well that's what it takes to make a honky tonk time
                          B
Juke box moaning those honky tonk sounds
     A                      E
Well I can't wait to lay my money down

[Chorus]
                        E
'Cause 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 of an old
juke box
E
 But when my money's all gone,
B
 I'm on the telephone singing
E
Hey hey mama can your daddy come home

[Outro]
                 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 of an old
juke box
E
 But when my money's all gone,
B
 I'm on the telephone singing
E
Hey hey mama can your daddy come home
