       G
I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
       C
I'm a honky tonk night time man
                  G
I can't stand no light
          D
I get my rest in the day time
                         G
Do my runnin' around at night

I had the blues this morning
Had the blues all day today
I had the blues this morning
Had the blues all day today
Well I wish a tornado
Come and blow my blues away, away

That's what I said, take 'em away
And then my heart starts beating
When that sun starts sinking low
Well my heart starts beating
When that sun starts sinking low
When the shadows fall
I know its time for me to go

I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
I get my rest in the day time
Do my running around at night
