Cheap Guitars & Honky Tonk Bars
-R. Younkins-

I drove all night to this Honky Tonk Bar to play for you Rock’n’Roll
Ev’ry gig I twang my cheap guitar hangin’ low
I use to think of fortune,
I used to dream of fame,
but I’m just damn’ glad to be here,
I used to live my life in shame

Chorus: I play my cheap guitar in a Honky Tonk bar,
that’s good enough for me
I pass my hat around
and maybe someday
I’ll afford a second hand Tele -whoa, oh, oh, yeah
I play my cheap guitar...... in a Honky Tonk bar

This place sure gets real smokey,
I think I need to catch my breath,
my Hollywood friends wouldn't believe the sights I'm seein’
Rock’n’Roll’s what’s keepin’ me sane
and I don’t make too much money
but it’s not all completely in vain

Chorus: I play my cheap guitar in a Honky Tonk bar,
that’s good enough for me
I pass my hat around
and maybe someday
I’ll afford a second hand Tele -whoa, oh, oh, yeah
I play my cheap guitar...... in a Honky Tonk bar

Bridge: Out on Saturday night,
hotrod cars and Harley bikes
steppin’ in to this Honky Tonk bar
Here I am playin’ my cheap guitar

Solo

Chorus: I play my cheap guitar in a Honky Tonk bar,
that’s good enough for me
I pass my hat around
and maybe someday
I’ll afford a second hand Tele
I play my cheap guitar in a Honky Tonk bar,
that’s good enough for me
I pass my hat around
and maybe someday
I’ll afford a second hand Tele -whoa, oh, oh, yeah
I play my cheap guitar...... in a Honky Tonk bar
-whooo
