I walked into a honkey tonkey
Just the other day
I droped a nickle in the juke
Box just to hear it play
I didn't have no tune in mind
I didn't wait to choose
Just droped a nickle in the slot
And I played the juke box blues
There's a guy in there with
An old tin horn
And a feller on an old banjo
And the man of the fiddle
He wasn't no slouch he could
Really drag that bow
Well the man on the fiddle
He must have got tired
I didn't hear him say 'cause he
Cut loose on the steel guitar
And the juke box ran away
And I've herd something going strong
It must have been a drum
It gave that song a solid beat
Boy it was goin' some
I walked into a honkey tonkey
Just the other day
I droped a nickle in the juke
Box just to hear it play
I didn't have no tune in mind
I didn't wait to choose
Just droped a nickle in the slot
And I played the juke box blues
I've played alot of juke boxes
Most everyone in town
That's the first tune
I've ever heard
That can make one night surround
Play the juke box blues
Such a rythum I've never heard
I danced out both of my shoes
