Honky Tonk Gal:Carl Perkins. Unissued, rare Rockabilly on SUN Records from 1954. Intro: #1. They took a light from a honky tonk, put the gleam in your eye. They took a record from the jukebox and they bid my gal goodbye. And now she's gone, honky tonk gal. #2. Oh, she said she didn't love me, she didn't care no more. She'd rather spend her life on a honky tonk hardwood floor. But I'll be gone, honky tonk gal. INTERLUDE: #3. Someday you'll come back crying, someday you will be blue. And that mean old honky tonkin' life'll get the best of you. But I'll be gone, honky tonk gal. #4. Lord, I'll stand right up and tell you, I'll sit right down and cry. Sweetheart, if you should leave me now, I'll know I'd lay and die. But I'll be gone, honky tonk gal. INTERLUDE: #5. They took a light from a honky tonk, put the gleam in your eye. They took a record from the jukebox and they bid my gal goodbye. And now she's gone, honky tonk gal. OUTRO: Ha-da-a-la-deet-da-da-da-da..ha-da-a-la-deet-ha- da-ho.. You'd rather spend your life on a honky tonk hardwood floor. But I'll be gone, honky tonk gal. A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
