Honky Tonk America Lyrics - Sammy Kershaw

Well the day it ends when the sun comes up 

Starts when the sun goes down 

Out on the back roads and on the back streets 

Of every farm and factory town 

There in the world of weekly wage 

There's always a place out there 

And the names and the faces are the same everywhere 

Well the room is full it's a Friday night 

We all wanna hear Louie Louie 

Been a long hard day and a long hard life 

And this is how we make it through it 

It's a blue collar place a red blooded crowd 

Tonight everything's all right in honky tonk America 

There's a flashing sign on a rain soaked street 

That lights up just about dark 

A welcome beacon on life's highway 

When your weary and when you lost heart 

Never say it's loneliness 

It's only the drinks and the band 

But something brings us back here again and again 

Well the room is full it's a Friday night 

We all wanna hear Proud Mary 

Been a long hard day and a long hard life 

We all got our crosses to carry 

It's a blue collar place a red blooded crowd 

Tonight everything's all right in honky tonk America 

Well talk about freedom alright 

But maybe some other time 

Tonight everyone's feeling fine 

Well the room is full it's a Friday night 

We all wanna hear Wolly Bully 

Been a long hard day and a long hard life 

Monday morning well all do our duty 

It's a blue collar place a red blooded crowd 

Tonight everything's all right in honky tonk America 

Honky tonk America 

Honky tonk America 

Honky tonk America 

Honky tonk America 

Honky tonk America 

Honky tonk America
