Midland - 21st Century Honky Tonk American Band lyrics
[Midland - 21st Century Honky Tonk American Band lyrics]
Yesterday was Denver
Tonight, it's Memphis, Tennessee
Runnin' off cocaine a couple hours of sleep
Can't remember all the halls
But they look the same to me
Just out here making a living
With this six-string in my hand
In this 21st century honky tonk American band
Play just about anywhere
Throw it down on a map
A different scene, the same ol' jeans
The same ol' pussycats tell Mama I miss her
And I'll be back one day
And I don't think ol' Waylon Jennings
Woulda even done it this way
Just out here, making a living
Tryna pay the record company man
In this 21st century honky tonk American band
And the wheels keep rolling on and on
And I hear them moaning a lonesome song
Ever since Hank sang to me
I knew I was born to be
In a 21st century honky tonk American band
Met a girl in Tallahassee
Said, "Boy, can I please ya?"
We boned all night long
Then I woke up with amnesia
Said, "Hey baby, what's your name?
I'll call you if I can
But I'm in a 21st century
Honky tonk American band"
And the wheels keep rolling on and on
And I hear them moaning a lonesome song
Ever since Hank sang to me
I knew I was born to be
In a 21st century honky tonk American band
(Let's go to work, boys)
And I feel I'm goin' on
I could sure use me a sunny day
And I know I've been away too long
'Cause I'm the same, but they've all changed
