DALE WATSON
"Honkiest Tonkiest Beer Joint"
(D. Watson / Dale Watson)

It's been here for near on thirty years
Wish I had a dime for every time sombody cried a tear in their beer
And a penny for every smile and Ginny gave out
At the honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town

[Chorus:]
45's are on the jukebox, some old some new
They say "Hello there, pull up a chair, what can I get for you?"
Well that's just small talk to help you feel at home when you come 'round
The honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town

[Guitar and steel solos...modulate one whole step]

If you're out on that side of town
You wanna shoot some pool or just shoot a cool one down
Rose's pickled eggs and sausage are by the pound
At the honkiest tonkiest beer joint, in town

[Chorus:]
45's are on the jukebox, some old some new
They say "Hello there, pull up a chair, what can I get for you?"
Well that's just small talk to help you feel at home when you come 'round
The honkiest tonkiest beer joint
The honkiest tonkiest beer joint
