Karaoké Honky Tonk Flame Tyler Childers

I was out of my mind the first night we met

I was feelin' lonely and blue

I'd just moved to the country to get me some rest

The city put a hurtin' on you

Especially a fella from eastern Kentucky without a penny or a worth to his name

Wastin' his life on a burnin' desire and chasin' that honky tonk flame

You were soft on the eyes and a hymn on the hearin'

Leavin' me helpless of lines

To get you to listen to the way I was feelin' and the plans I had made for our night

Hold on now buddy won't ya wait up a minute

You're mistaken if you think

I'm the same

As them skirts you've been chasin' all over town along with that honky tonk flame

I'm a woman with a love so true

Truth of the matter

I'd give it to you

You just got to slow down

Quit actin' that way

Burnin' your barn in this honky tonk flame

You were sweet to the touch and a touch for the takin'

The minute I learned how to breathe

Finally found out that the love of a woman who loved me was all that I'd need

Still on the road 'cos I ain't good for nothin' except writin' the songs that I sing

Beatin' them strings like they're owin' me money and chasin' that honky tonk flame

But I got me a woman with a love so true

Darlin' to me but that's missus to you

All I did was slow down and quit actin' insane

Burnin' my barn in this honky tonk flame
