Lyrics: Kevin Fowler. Honky Tonk Junkie.

I used to only do it when I partied with my friends
Once or twice a month you know, just every now and then
I started needin? more and more till I did it everyday
It soon became a habit that I just can?t seem to shake

I get the jonesy for Jones, I?ve got a hanker for Hank
Yeah, when I?m feelin? down I need them around
To help me through the pain
Anytime that I wanna get stoned all I need is a sad, sad song
It?s the only fix for a honky tonk junkie like me

The first step to recovery isn?t meant and that?s your hook
I?ve tried every twelve step program, I?ve read every self-help book
But there ain?t no cure for an addict who ain?t ready to give it up
No I can?t put it down, that old lonesome sound
I just can?t get enough

I get the jonesy for Jones, I?ve got a hanker for Hank
Yeah, when I?m feelin? down I need them around
To help me through the pain
Anytime that I wanna get stoned all I need is a sad, sad song
It?s the only fix for a honky tonk junkie like me

I get the jonesy for Jones, I?ve got a hanker for Hank
Yeah, when I?m feelin? down I need them around
To help me through the pain
Anytime that I wanna get stoned all I need is a sad, sad song
It?s the only fix for a honky tonk junkie like me
Yeah, it?s the only fix for a honky tonk junkie like me
