Yeah

Well he's drinking down the bourbon

like it was soda pop

Trying to quell a feeling he knows

ain't gonna stop

He's mortgaged out his blood

For one more chance to breathe

He had the dt's for breakfast

The shakes till noon

He picked up his bag and left the

motel room

His head is held high but his heart

Is on it's knees

Well he packed his guitar

And his bar room tan

Gotta get some miles behind him

As fast as he can

Another destination some place else to play

Well he left a life behind him in some

old trailer park

They tried to make it work it was ruined

from the start

He had to shake the rust it became to

time to leave

Hey

It's a honky tonk engagement

But there's no better place to play

His face feels like crazy pavement

It's getting more lined every day

Well he's gonna write a letter

And try to explain

She says he's too old to have these

growing pains

But something keeps him moving

Living on through the night

But as the night approaches

A change is in the air

His heart is pumping fast

He's got no cares

The music befriends him

It can take him anywhere

Yeah

It's a honky tonk engagement

But there's no better place to play

His mind feels like crazy pavement

He's getting crazed out every day

Well he's drinking down the bourbon

like it was soda pop

Trying to quell a feeling

He knows ain't gonna stop

He's mortgaged out his blood

For one more chance to breathe

He had the dt's for breakfast

The chills till noon

He picked up his guitar and left

the motel room

His head is held high but his

heart is on it's knees

Yeah
