Origineel
I got me a room
In a cheap hotel
My head was a spinnin’
And I didn’t feel well
I laid right down
And tried to go to sleep
A band kept a playin’
In a joint underneath
I picked up my pillow
And I covered up my head
But the band kept a playin’
And a shakin’ my bed
Honky tonk all night long
Honky tonk, same old song
Honky tonk, my money’s all gone
Honky tonk, she done me wrong
I turned and I tossed
And I couldn’t go to sleep
‘Cause the band kept a playin’
With a honky tonk beat
Well, I’m so blue
My baby’s gone
She took all my money
And left me all alone
I’m tryin’ to forget her
But I don’t know what to do
The honky tonk song
Keeps a leakin’ through
I picked up my pillow
And I covered up my head
But the band keeps a playin’
And a shakin’ my bed
Honky tonk all night long
Honky tonk, same old song
Honky tonk, my money’s all gone
Honky tonk, she done me wrong
I turned and I tossed
And I couldn’t go to sleep
‘Cause the band keeps a playin’
With a honky tonk beat
Vertaling
Ik heb een kamer
In een goedkoop hotel
My head was a spinnin’
And I didn’t feel well
Ik ging meteen liggen
And tried to go to sleep
A band kept a playin’
In a joint underneath
I picked up my pillow
And I covered up my head
But the band kept a playin’
And a shakin’ my bed
Honky tonk, de hele nacht lang
Honky tonk, zelfde oude liedje
Honky tonk, mijn geld is op
Honky tonk, ze deed me onrecht
I turn and I tossed
And I couldn’t go to sleep
‘Cause the band kept a playin’
With a honky tonk beat
Well, I’m so blue
My baby’s gone
She took all my money
And left me all alone
I’m tryingin’ to forget her
But I don’t know what to do
The honky tonk song
Keeps a leakin’ through
I picked up my pillow
And I covered up my head
But the band keeps a playin’
And a shakin’ my bed
Honky tonk all night long
Honky tonk, zelfde oude liedje
Honky tonk, mijn geld is op
Honky tonk, ze deed me onrecht
I turn and I tossed
And I couldn’t go to sleep
‘Cause the band keeps a playin’
With a honky tonk beat
