Lyrics

[Chorus] Well I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone telephone Singing "Hey hey mama, can your daddy come home?" [Verse 1] Well now I'm living wild and dangerously But I've got plenty of company When the moon comes up and the sun goes down Well I can't wait to see the lights of town [Chorus] 'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box And when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone telephone Singing "Hey hey mama, can your daddy come home?" [Instrumental Chorus] [Chorus] Well I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box And when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone telephone Singing "Hey hey mama, can your daddy come home?" [Verse 2] Hey now, a pretty little girl and a jug of wine Well that's what it takes to make a honky tonk time With the juke box moaning those honky tonk sounds Well I can't wait to lay my money down [Chorus] 'Cause I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone Singing "Hey hey mama, can your daddy come home?" [Chorus] I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone Singing "Hey hey mama, can your daddy come home?"
