[00:09.56] Well, I think I’m in Kansas, maybe Missouri
[00:13.64] The truth is I really ain’t sure
[00:17.76] But I’ve been in this van going on fifteen hours
[00:21.76] My back and my butt, God they hurt
[00:25.89] There’s a sign up ahead, flashing in red
[00:29.92] From Nashville, appearing tonight
[00:34.11] It’s always the same, they misspell my name
[00:38.11] Still I love the honkytonk life
[00:42.36] Hey Soir, grab the guitars, and I’ll get the speakers
[00:46.54] Could somebody plug in my amp
[00:50.36] If we hurry they’ll feed us, before we go on
[00:54.48] And I’ll work it out with the man
[00:58.86] Sometimes the beer’s free and sometimes it’s half price
[01:02.86] And sometimes there’s no beer at all
[01:06.92] But me and the boys’ll be making some noise
[01:10.67] Either way?til they give that last call
[01:15.01] The guys will be drinkin’, the girls will be dancing
[01:19.58] Dancing up there on the bar
[01:23.32] This joint’s got an atmosphere
[01:25.39] Blue collar, cold beer
[01:27.51] Decidedly come as you are
[01:31.32] I could quit all this road stuff
[01:33.54] Go back to my real job
[01:35.67] And put in a straight nine to five
[01:39.87] But I love the neon
[01:41.81] And I love the people
[01:43.93] And I love the honkytonk life
[01:48.00]
[02:04.41] I got a wink from a barmaid straight out of a magazine
[02:08.59] Man, that girl’s breaking my heart
[02:12.53] Now I’ve got ten after, but according to tavern time
[02:16.86] This gig is fixing to start
[02:20.88] This crowd here is rowdier, the girls here are prettier
[02:24.81] Than any place we’ve ever played
[02:28.88] You got us boys thinking, if y’all keep on drinkin’
[02:33.28] Tonight we might all just get... paid
[02:37.03] The guys are all drinkin’, the girls are all dancing
[02:41.72] Dancing up there on the bar
[02:45.41] This joint’s got an atmosphere
[02:47.41] Blue collar, cold beer
[02:49.59] Decidedly come as you are
[02:53.41] I could quit all this road stuff
[02:55.59] Go back to my real job
[02:57.78] And put in a straight nine to five
[03:01.72] But I love the neon
[03:03.91] And I love the people
[03:05.97] And I love the honky tonk life
[03:09.97] Yeah I love the neon
[03:12.15] I love the people
