Toby Keith - Honkytonk U lyric
Ringtone: Send Honkytonk U Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
My grandmother owned a nightclub
on the Arkansas-Oklahoma line
Momma put me on a Greyhound,
and I went to stay with her in the summertime
I'd box up those empty longnecks and
stack 'em in the back and make a hand
Then at night she'd let me sneak out of the kitchen
and sit in with the band
Yes, I have sacked some quarterbacks and broke
my share of bones along the way
I knew it wouldn't last forever,
semi-pro always means semi-paid
I started climbin' drillin' rigs,
I'm oil field trash and proud as I can be
Then I took my songs and guitar
and sang 'em to a man from Tennessee
CHORUS
I've played every beer joint tavern
from New York City out to Pasadena
Every corn dog fair and rodeo
and sold out every basketball arena
I like to get down with my boys from Afghanistan and Baghdad City too
I am a red, white and blue blooded graduate of Honkytonk U
A star can't burn forever, and the brightest ones will someday lose
their shine
But the glass won't ever be half empty in my optimistic mind
I'll still have a song to sing and a band to turn it ip and play it
loud, As long as there's a bar room with a corner stage and a honkytonk
crowd
REPEAT CHORUS
That's right, a red, white and blue blooded graduate of Honkytonk U
