King of the Honky Tonk

King of the Honky Tonk You can find me on a hardwood floor I'm the King of the Honky Tonk There's a swirl of fun around my throne Every Friday night, in the neon lights I hold court with juke joint royalty We have a lot of fun open to anyone Where the beer and the liquor flow If you come to play, you'll soon know my name As we toast to love and America I'll probably buy a round for the whole damned crowd And everybody will sing my praise Here's to the King of the Honky Tonk Weaving through peanut shells on the floor King of the Honky Tonk Making friends with all who swing through the door Every Saturday night, there may be a fight Over anything from love or wars They won't call the law, we have our own protocol For lover's spats and barroom brawls When things get out of hand, call the king of the land To cool 'em down and bring peace to the room I'll buy 'em all a beer, they'll share how they feel And leave that night as lifelong friends Thanks to the King of the Honky Tonk Everybody's best friend in the room King of the Honky Tonk All the band members know my name I'm gonna stroll boys How 'bout some fiddle King of the Honky Tonk Waltzin' with every gal who comes through the door King of the Honky Tonk Stop on by and have a drink with the King King of the Honky Tonk You can find me on a hardwood floor I'm the King of the Honky Tonk Making friends with all who swing through the door Everybody's best friend in the room Stop on by and have a drink with the King
