Capo 1
C
When I was a baby
My sweet mom told me
Go around this world
G C
And see all you can see
Find a good woman
Get a job and settle down
G
But I could not stay away
C
From the lights of town
F
I had to go where the music is loud
C G C
And I fell in with the honky tonk crowd
(Chorus)
C
So let the jukebox play
Let's dance all night
G
When you get down on the floor
C
You know you got it right
Where there's a neon light
F
That's where I'll be found
C G
Cuz I feel right at home
C
With a honky tonk crowd
There was a debutant in Dallas
That nearly blew my mind
She was raised on caviar and real fine wine
She didn't like hillbilly music
And that was more than I could take
I left the little cowgirl away in the Lonestar State
Cuz I had to go where the music is loud
I'm right at home with a honky tonk crowd
