Honkytonk U Lyrics

My grandmother owned a nightclub on the Arkansas-Oklahoma line
Momma put me on a greyhound
And I went to stay with her in the summertime
I'd box up those empty long necks
And stack'em in the back and make a hand
Then at night she'd let me sneak out of the kitchen and sit in with the band

Yes, I have sacked some quarterbacks
And broke my share of bones along the way
I knew it wouldn't last forever, semi-pro always means semi-paid
I started climbin' drillin' rig, I'm oil field trash and proud as I can be, yeah
Then I took my songs and guitar and sang 'em to a man from Tennessee

I've played every beer joint tavern from New York city out to Pasadena
Every corn dog fair and rodeo and sold out every basketball arena
I like to get down with my boys in Afghanistan and Baghdad City too
I am a red, white and blue blood graduate of honky tonk you

His star can't burn forever
And the brightest ones will someday lose their shine
But the gla*s won't ever be half empty in my optimistic mind
I'll still have a song to sing and a band to turn it up and play it loud
As long as there's a bar room with a corner stage and a honky tonk crowd

I've played every beer joint tavern from new York city out to Pasadena
Every corn dog fair and rodeo and sold out ever basketball arena
I like to get down with my boys in Afghanistan and Baghdad City too
Son I'm a red, white and blue blood graduate of honky tonk you
That's right a red, white and blue blood graduate of honky tonk you
