Lyrics:

It’s a honky tonk night, in a honky tonk town
full of honky tonk people, making honky tonk sounds

and everyone is drinking
and everyone is dancing
the cheap beer is flowing
the music is pounding my head

but smokey says, fetch me another, right now

it’s a honky night, in this honky tonk town
and I’m trapped in the back, trying to make my escape

the boys are all fighting
the girls are all screaming
the cheap beer still flowing
the music still pounding my head

when the telephone rings, there’s only silence
when the telephone rings, muffled breathing
when the telephone rings funny voices

saying son you’d better get out of town

it’s a honky tonk night, in a honky tonk town
full of honky tonk people, making honky tonk sounds
and I’m trapped in the back, trying to make my escape
I’m telling myself, I’m trying to make my escape

the boys are all fighting
the girls are all screaming
the cheap beer still flowing
the music is pounding my head

but smokey says, fetch me another, right now
but smokey says, fetch me another, right now
but smokey says, fetch me another, right now

when the telephone rings, there’s only silence
when the telephone rings, muffled breathing
when the telephone rings funny noises

saying son you’d better get back home
