Honky Tonk Night Time Man Lyrics

Merle Haggard Honky Tonk Night Time Man

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

Lord, my heart starts beatin' when the sun starts sinking low
Lord, my heart starts beatin' when the sun starts sinking low
When the shadows fall I know it's time to go

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 at night
