And I got this tattoo in the back of a pool room in east Tennessee
Oh, I got a long honkey-tonk history
Their from Suzy Johnson's husband's snub nose 38
And whiskey on a woman's breath
I love the smell of cigarette's
I love the smell of cigarette's
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
I'm just like my daddy and my daddy's daddy
Right or wrong just carrying on my honkey-tonk, honkey-tonk history
(And his daddy before him)
Blame it on my honkey-tonk history, oh
See this solid gold watch change hand
Took it off a Texas oil tycoon in a backwoods poker game
Look at these holes in my tailgate
Outside of Tuscaloosa, stitched it up in a bathroom stall
And whiskey on a woman's breath
(And his daddy before him)
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
I got this scar in a beer bar brawl
Right or wrong that's my honkey-tonk history
I'm just like my daddy, and his daddy's daddy
Thank god he's a bad shot and I had that toolbox, between him and me
