Well I was born for Saturday night
Looking for trouble and ready to fight
I was made to be wild and free
Where it`s loud and bright, that`s where I`ll be
And I might change some day I guess
But honky tonkin`s what I do best
I can juke all night without taking a breath
Get out on the floor, dance myself to death
I`m a wild-eyed, certified, bonafide general mess
And honky tonkin`s what I do best
I never had much luck with society
My momma used to say "he don`t belong to me"
But deep down I think daddy understood
He always made me feel like I was worth some good
Sister moved to New York and she`s a big success (I`m so impressed)
But honky tonkin`s what I do best
I can juke all night without taking a breath
Get out on the floor, dance myself to death
I`m a wild-eyed, certified, bonafide general mess
And honky tonkin`s what I do best
Honky tonkin`s what I do best
Yeah, I said honky tonkin`s what I do best
Honky tonkin`s what I do best
