Johnathan East Honky Tonk My Blues Away Lyrics

All week long I’ve been working at the factory
Think it’s ‘bout time that I got set free
There’s a little girl working down at the pool hall
All week long she’s been waiting on me
I’m sick and tired of this stiff blue collar
I’m fed up with the boss man, too
I’ve come down with the Friday fever
There’s only one thing that will do.

(Chorus)
So turn up the jukebox, break out the whiskey
We’ll knock’em back while the fiddles play
Tonight, I’m putting all my cares behind me
Gonna’ honky tonk my blues away.
Every morning I’m up before the sunrise
Working hard just to make my pay
Looking forward to my Friday paycheck
Son, I wish it come everyday
‘Cause Lord knows I was born for a good time
I got that neon in my blood
Late nights and honky tonk angels
That’s the only life I love.

(Repeat Chorus)

Got my hand on a log neck bottle
Got my arm around a sweet young thing
Just as long as the shots keep coming
You won’t hear me complain.
Aw yeah.

(Repeat Chorus)
