《Honky Tonk U》歌词

[00:00:00] Honky Tonk U - Ameritz Tribute Tracks

[00:00:13] My grandmother owned a night club

[00:00:15] On the Arkansas-Oklahoma line

[00:00:22] Mama put me on a Greyhound

[00:00:24] And I went to stay with her in the summertime

[00:00:30] I'd box up those empty long-necks

[00:00:32] And stack 'em in the back and make a ham

[00:00:38] Then at night she'd let me sneak out

[00:00:40] Of the kitchen and sit in with the band

[00:00:47] Yes I have sacked some quarterbacks

[00:00:49] And broke my share of bones along the way

[00:00:56] I knew it wouldn't last forever

[00:00:58] Semi-pro always means semi-payed

[00:01:04] I started climbing drilling rigs

[00:01:06] I'm oil field trash and proud as I can be yeah

[00:01:12] Then I took my songs and guitar

[00:01:15] And sang 'em to a man from Tennessee

[00:01:21] I've played every beer joint tavern

[00:01:23] From New York City out to Pasadena

[00:01:30] Every corn dog fair and rodeo

[00:01:32] And sold out every basketball arena

[00:01:38] Like to get down with my boys

[00:01:40] In Afghanistan and Baghdad City too

[00:01:46] I am a red white and blue blood

[00:01:49] Graduate of Honky Tonk U

[00:02:04] A star can't burn forever

[00:02:06] And the brightest ones will someday lose their shine

[00:02:12] But the glass won't ever be

[00:02:14] Half empty in my optimistic mind

[00:02:21] I'll still have a song to sing

[00:02:23] And a band to turn it up and play it loud

[00:02:29] As long as there's a bar room

[00:02:31] With a corner stage and a honky tonk crowd

[00:02:37] I've played every beer joint tavern

[00:02:40] From New York City out to Pasadena

[00:02:46] Every corn dog fair and rodeo

[00:02:48] And sold out every basketball arena

[00:02:54] I like to get down with my boys

[00:02:57] In Afghanistan and Baghdad City too

[00:03:03] Son I'm a red white and blue blood

[00:03:05] Graduate of Honky Tonk U

[00:03:11] That's a red white and blue blood

[00:03:14] Graduate of Honky Tonk U
