$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('holmes', 'h')ey u old bald prick. watched the Dylan no direction home on pbs first part again last night. I like that Dylan. A real American that man was. He still rocking and looking good too. Dig that cat.
I see helplessness too. He had the anger and helplessness.
Yeah, Bob's got the music. Hank Williams is good stuff too.
Well I left my home down on the rural route
I told my paw I'm going steppin out and get the
Honky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonk blues
Well lord I got 'em,
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
Well I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes
woke up this mornin wishin I could lose
them jumpin honky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonk blues
Well lord I got 'em,
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
Well I stopped into every place in town
this city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonk blues
Well lord I got em,
got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my pappy's farm
And leave these honky tonk blues,
Yeah the honky tonk blues
Well lord I got 'em,
I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues.
unrecorded last verse (from KPFA, ~1993)
When I get home to my Ma and Pa,
I know they're gonna lay down the law.
About the honky tonk blues,
Them jumpin' honky tonk blues.
Lord I'm suffrin' with the honky tonk blues.
