Honky Tonk Fantasy

[Intro] Sittin here sippin old grandad one fourteen Trying to write a honky tonk song bout drinking and being free This back porch view makes it hard to write About a life…i will never lead I wanna sing about the girls and those one night stands But my wife I’m sure, would never understand Been with her now for 52 years So how can I write about a life without her A honky tonk song is just my fantasy This life I have is just fine with me But I’ll write a song about a life I never had Sittin on this back porch with these lines in my head Wanna sing about an old bar stool Talking to the barkeep, and actin’ a fool Two steppin each night till closing time But it’s all I can do to stay up past nine [Instrumental interlude] Looking out over these hills Montana sure gives me a thrill Maybe tomorrow by the old fire pit I’ll howl at the moon….for just a bit A honky tonk song is just my fantasy This life I have is just fine with me But I’ll write a song about a life I never had Sittin on this back porch with these lines in my head [Instrumental interlude] Yeah, I’ll write this honky tonk song About a place I’ve never belonged But the music is good, makes me wanna dance But knowing all along…..there’s not a chance A honky tonk song…is just my fantasy This life up here….is perfect for me [Outro]
