    Honky Tonk Song lyrics
    Got me room in a cheap hotel
    My head was a spinnin' and didn't feel well
    I laid right down and tried to go to sleep
    A band kept a playin' in the joint underneath
    I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head
    But the band kept a playin' and a shaken my bed.
    Honky tonk all night long
    Honky tonk same old song
    Honky tonk my money's all gone
    Honky tonk she done me wrong.
    I turned and I tossed
    And I couldn't go to sleep
    'Cause the band kept a playin'
    With a honky tonk beat.
    I'm so blue my baby's gone she took all my money
    And she left me all alone
    I'm tryin' to forget her but I don't know what to do
    The honky tonk song keeps a leakin' through
    I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head
    But the band kept a playin' and a shaken my bed.
    Honky tonk all night long
    Honky tonk same old song
    Honky tonk my money's all gone
    Honky tonk she done me wrong.
    Honky tonk all night long
    Honky tonk same old song
    Honky tonk my money's all gone
    Honky tonk she done me wrong...

    Webb could rock for sure! He's at ease with any kind of song, and now days artists can't match him at all.

    An older Sammy Pruett (Jack's bro) on guitar - man, Sammy went back to when he played with Hank Williams, but also a number of other artists.

      John,
      Did Webb have his own syndicated TV show in the 70's? I've seen bits and pieces of this tape and every one has the same band on it.

    • @2packs4sure

      This was an attempt by Webb,, "I Believe" to get a show, from the looks of it I'd guess 1974 ish...
      I'm sure Webb paid for everything,, band, studio, cameras, etc. and put it all together himself like an audition tape.
      I'm not exactly sure what his motives were but he never had a show.
      Then in 1990 Webb took the tapes, repackaged them, added his own on camera commentary, and sold it on TV or Goldmine magazine,, I can't remember were I saw it.... Seems like it was TV.
      I bought the VHS at the time and had it UNTIL the recent flood.
      Most of it I consider weak,, though he does a good job on COWTOWN,,, I remember the young bass player was really smiling through Cowtown...
      I also remember on one of the songs breaks meter badly, just keeps going, and the guitar player with the super duper white hair-do rolls his eyes.
      The last song he sings to some lady (trying to make it romantic) and it's the corniest thing you've ever seen in your friggin' life !!
      I THINK THE SONG WAS SOMEDAY.
      The dvd version is still available I think,,,,, but it's a hard watch overall.

      It ain't a wig, it's just that early 70's look,,,,, Webb never went bald.

      @nascarfan88ta Před 6 lety

      Don't know the names, but the bass player kinda looks like Joe Bonsall from the oaks.
      And the lead guitarist just looks miserable

    • @shuffle877
      @shuffle877 Před 6 lety +2

      The guitar player is Sammy Pruett and the steel player is Don Helms. The fiddle player is Vassar Clements. Not sure about the others though.
