I met a gin-soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis She tried to take me upstairs for a ride She had to heave me right across shoulder Cause I just can seem to drink you off my mind
It's the honky tonk women Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
そいつは 場末の安酒場の女たち 調子外れなブルースを聞かせてくれよ
I laid a divorcee in New York City I had to put up some kind of a fight The lady then she covered me with roses She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
Well I left my home down on the rural route I told my paw I'm going steppin out and get the Honky tonk blues, Yeah the honky tonk blues Well lord I got 'em, I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
Well I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes woke up this mornin wishin I could lose them jumpin honky tonk blues, Yeah the honky tonk blues Well lord I got 'em, I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
Well I stopped into every place in town this city life has really got me down I got the honky tonk blues, Yeah the honky tonk blues Well lord I got em, got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm And scat right back to my pappy's farm And leave these honky tonk blues, Yeah the honky tonk blues Well lord I got 'em, I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
