On a Honky-Tonk Hardwood Floor Songtext
von Kay Starr

On a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
You oughta hear the beat
Of all the happy feet
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

On a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
There you′re havin' fun
You lucky son of a gun
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

The theatre′s all squeakin'
And guitars are speakin'
And piano plays the jelly roll
And the man on the drums
He′s far from dumb
And the bassman plays them a soul


Well, the tables are shakin′
And the walls are a-quakin'
And the people swarmin′ in at the door
Well you're havin′ fun
You lucky son of a gun
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

On a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
You oughta hear the beat
Of all the happy feet
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

On a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
Say you're havin′ fun
You lucky son of a gun
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

There's mom and dad
They're dancin′ out of bad
But they′re trying to get in the groove
When the band plays loud
You oughta see the crowd
Everybody's on the move


Well the whole darn′s jumpin'
All the clubs are a-bumpin′
But you keep on beggin' for more
Say you′re havin' fun
You lucky son of a gun
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

There's a bartender handy
Who makes drinks dandy
And he′ll even serve ya sody-pop
The couples slip and slide
They dance from side to side
And they haven′t got a chance to stop

Well if you have no money
But you're with Honey
He′s the one that you adore
Well you're havin′ fun
You lucky son of a gun
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

On a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
You oughta hear the beat
Of all the happy feet
On a honky tonk hardwood floor

On a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
Say you're havin′ fun
You lucky son of a gun
On a honky tonk hardwood floor
