"As Long As There's A Honky Tonk" lyrics

I cut my teeth in Texas, learned to walk on western swing
I rode my old Gibson Dove right out to Tennessee
Right out to Tennessee

I picked on Music City, said to hell with the big machine
But I love the Grand Ole Opry and the songs they let me sing
Yeah, the songs they let me sing

I got a rambling heart, beating on six strings
Know the highway life's not paradise, but it's just right by me
You can't grow roots rocking and rolling down the road
As long as there's a honky-tonk, I'll always have a home

I don't need a flower bed or a big white picket fence
Once I picked the neon rose, my family ain't seen me since
No, my mama ain't seen me since

I love waking up in a motel, not knowing where I am
And I love being the only woman in a five-piece country band
A five-piece country band

I got a rambling heart, beating on six strings
Well, the highway life's not paradise, but it's just right by me
You can't grow roots rocking and rolling down the road
And as long as there's a honky-tonk, I'll always have a home

I got a rambling heart, beating on six strings
Well, the highway life's not paradise, but it's just right by me
You can't grow roots rocking and rolling down the road
And as long as there's a honky-tonk, I'll always have a home
As long as there's a honky-tonk, I'll always have a home
