I'm a honky tonk night time man I can't stand no light I'm a honky tonk night time man I can't stand no light I get my rest in the daytime I make my running 'round at night I had the blues this morning I had the blues all day today I had the blues this morning I had the blues all day today But when the sun goes down I'm gonna tuck my blues away, away that's what I said Boy tuck away I mean my heart starts beatin' When the sun starts sinking low Lord my heart starts beatin' When that sun starts sinking low When the shadows fall I know it's time to go, going on I'm a honky tonk night time man I can't stand no light I'm a honky tonk night time man I can't stand no light I get my rest in the daytime I do my running 'round, 'round at night, alright
