21st Century Honky Tonk American Band Songtext
von Midland

Get off the bus
The band and the boys and me
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
