I do my best to fit in
I work hard for the man
Big city corporate land under my feet

But when the week is through
I get back my country roots
They can all just kiss my Tony Lama boots

I'm being me
And i'm goin' back, i'm goin' back


Chorus
Back to the honky tonks
Back to the honky tonks

Back to that dirt road life I know
Home sweet home away from home
Back to the honky tonks

Back to the honky tonks

I put my dually in drive make my way thru the night

Cross the county line and i'm feelin' free
Cause I know everybody back there
And they'll be throwin' down I swear

And on sawdust floor is where
She waits for me
And i'm goin' back, i'm goin' back


Chorus


Back to the honky tonks
Back to the honky tonks
Back to that dirt road life I know

Home sweet home away from home
Back to the honky tonks


Back to the honky tonks
Back to the honky tonks
Back to the George Jones hurtin' songs

Home sweet home away from home
Back to the honky tonks
Back to the honky tonks
