Honky Tonk Woman

Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:

I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind
It's the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady, then she covered me in roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
It's the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

Is It True?
Is It True?
Composer(s): Óskar Páll Sveinsson - Tinatin - Chris Neil
First performance by: Yohanna - 2009
You say you really know me
You're not afraid to show me
What is in your eyes
So tell me 'bout the rumours
Are they only rumours?
Are they only lies?
Falling out of a perfect dream
Coming out of the blue
Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you? (Was it you?)
Did you tell me
You would never leave me this way?
If you really knew me
You couldn't do this to me
You would be my friend
If one of us is lying
There's no use in trying
No need to pretend
Falling out of a perfect dream
Coming out of the blue
Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you? (Was it you?)
Did you tell me
You would never leave me this way?
Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you? (Was it you?)
Did you tell me
You would never leave me this way?
(Is it real?)
(Did I dream it?)
Will I wake from this pain?
Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Baby, did I throw it away?
Ooh... is it true?

Honky Tonk Merry Go Round
Honky Tonk Merry Go Round
Composer(s): Stan Gardner; Frank Simon
Performer(s): Patsy Cline
I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Makin' every spot in town
Startin' out early, comin' home late
Ever night with a brand-new date!
I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin' like a foolish clown
Still racin' those blues that you left with me
Wonderin' if I'll ever be free
Round and around and around I go
Ridin' high and feelin' low
Round and around just like a top
Well, I'm a-gettin' dizzy, but I can't stop!
I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin' like a foolish clown
Still racin' those blues that you left with me
Wonderin' if I'll ever be free
Round and around and around I go
Ridin' high and feelin' low
Round and around just like a top
Well, I'm a-gettin' dizzy, but I can't stop!
I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin' like a foolish clown
Still racin' those blues that you left with me
Wonderin' if I'll ever be free
Yes, I'm wonderin' if I'll ever be free!

Stone Cold
Stone Cold
Composer(s): Ritchie Blackmore - Roger Glover - Joe Lynn Turner
Performer(s): Rainbow
Every night I have the same old dream 'bout you and me and what's in between
So many changes so many lies
Try to run try to hide from everything that I feel inside
But I can't escape you or your frozen eyes
Searching in the darkness
Fading out of sight
Love was here and gone like a thief in the night
Stone cold and I thought I knew you so well
Stone cold can't break away from your spell
Another dark and empty night if I was wrong I wanna make it right
But you are so distant so far away
Your words like ice fall on the ground breaking the silence without a sound
Oh familiar strangers with nothing to say
Searching in the darkness
Fading out of sight
Love was here and gone like a thief in the night
Stone cold and I thought I knew you so well
Stone cold I can't break away from your spell
You leave me stone cold
Searching in the darkness
Fading out of sight
Love was here and gone like a thief in the night
Stone cold and I thought I knew you so well
You're stone cold yeah I can't break away from your spell
Stone cold baby I thought I knew you so well
You're stone cold ... ice cold ... can't break away from your spell
You put me in the deep freeze [stone cold]
Oh baby don't you leave me [I thought I knew you so well]
Stone stone cold your leavin' me cold [can't break away from your spell]
Stone cold I thought I knew you so well
Stone cold can't break away from your spell
Stone cold I thought I knew you so well
Stone cold can't break away from your spell

Honky Tonk Heroes
Composer(s): Billy Joe Shaver
Performer(s): Waylon Jennings;
and various other artists
Low down leaving sun
I've done did everything that needs done
Woe is me, why can't I see
I best be leaving well enough alone
Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
They keep a-haunting me in memories
Well there's one in every crowd, for crying out loud
Why was it always turning out be me
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For loveable losers, no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me
Yeah, yeah
(Repeat Chorus)
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For loveable losers, no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me

Se sou tinta tu és tela
Se sou chuva és aguarela
Se sou sal és branca areia
Se sou mar és maré-cheia

Se sou estrela és de encantar
Se sou noite és luz para ela
Se sou dia és o luar
Sou a voz do coração
Numa carta aberta ao mundo
Sou o espelho d’emoção
Do teu olhar
Profundo
Sou um todo
Num instante
Corpo dado
Em jeito amante
Sou o tempo que não passa
Quando a saudade
Me abraça
Beija o mar o vento e a lua
Sou um sol
Em neve nua em todas as ruas
Do amor
Serás meu e eu serei tua
Se sou tinta tu és tela
Se sou chuva És aguarela
Se sou sal És branca areia
Se sou mar és maré cheia
Se sou céu és nuvem nele
Se sou estrela és de encantar
Se sou noite és luz para ela
Se sou dia és o luar
Beija o mar o vento e a lua
Sou um sol em neve nua
Em todas as ruas
Do amor
Serás meu e eu serei tua

Honky Tonk Gal
Honky Tonk Gal
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
Performer(s): The Million Dollar Quartet;
and various other artists
It took a light from a honky-tonk
Put the beam in your eye
It took a record from a jukebox
And it bid my gal goodbye
And now she's gone, honky-tonk gal
Oh, she said she didn't love me
She didn't care no more
She'd rather spend her life now
On a honky-tonk hardwood floor
But I'll be gone, honky-tonk gal
Someday you'll come back cryin'
Someday you will be blue
And that mean ol' honky-tonkin' life
Will get the best off you
But I'll be gone, honky-tonk gal
Lord, I stand right up and tell you
I sit right down and cry
Sweetheart if you should leave me now
I know I'll lay and die
And I'll be gone, honky-tonk gal
It took a light from a honky-tonk
Put the beam in your eye
It took a record from a jukebox
And it bid my gal goodbye
And now she's gone, honky-tonk gal
La, da, dee, la, da, do, La, da, dee, la, da, do
La, da, dee, la, da, do, La, da, dee, la, da, do
You'd rather spend your life
On a honky-tonk hardwood floor
But I'll be gone, honky-tonk gal

Stone
Stone
Composer(s): Ronnie Lane
Performer(s): Small Faces
Once I was a stone many years ago
Into a pool was thrown many years ago
Time passed by, the pool ran dry, excavated was I
And tempered and beat in a fiery heat
By the hand of a man, who's name was Dan
Dan the blacksmith
Once I was a sword, many years ago
And my blade was broad, many years ago
Worn with pride, into battle I'd ride at a warrior's side
And I cut and I killed and was lost in a field
And I soon did rust, corrode to dust
Oh my
Once I was a daisy, many years ago
In pastures green and lazy, many years ago
But I was et by a goat who fell in a moat and forgetting to float
He sunk like a lead and stayed until dead
But was relieved to find just how kind it all was
Once I was a grub, many years ago
I lived in muck and mud, many years ago
But on the very first noon I became a cocoon that resembled a prune
When the Good Lord was done in the warmth of the sun
I shed my skins, and dried my wings, and I flew away
Once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival
And once I was a carp and lived in waters ornamental
And once I was a myna bird, quoting verses from the Bible
Said "pretty boy, pretty boy, St. Luke"
Once I was a mule, a many years ago
But my master treat me cruel, a many years ago
By and by I was sick, couldn't move to his kick, so he took out a stick
And hit it right 'cross my back to an almighty crack
And to his dismay, I passed away, into the blue
I was born a human baby, many years ago
I was born unto a lady, many years ago
All our hopes they were piled on the back of a child that turned out to be wild
Sent the devil a prayer and caused the parson to swear
So I took my leave to lie and thieve my way to jail
I've been tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor
I've known good times and disaster
But now I've found a teacher, and the teacher has a master
The master is perfection, so he'll help us get there faster
I don't need no proof, because that's the truth, and I'll drink to that

Honky Tonk Downstairs
Honky Tonk Downstairs
Composer(s): Dallas Frazier
Performer(s): George Jones;
and various other artists
Well, it won't be long now
Until that ol' sun goes down
And darkness helps me hide my shameful tears
My wife works all night long
For a man who's halfway gone
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
It's a shame she wears the name
Of a man who's locked and chained
To a bottle that's destroyin' all hopes and cares
To the men with the hungry eyes
She works and hides her pride
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
It's a shame she wears the name
Of a man who's locked and chained
To a bottle that's destroyin' all hopes and cares
To the men with the hungry eyes
She works and hides her pride
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs

Honky Tonk Amnesia
Honky Tonk Amnesia
Composer(s): A.L. Owens; Sanger Shafer
Performer(s): Moe Bandy
She'd be hurt if she knew I was drinkin'
Cause one's too much and twelve's not enough
She knows how it messes up my thinkin'
How it makes me look for someone else to love
I get honky tonk amnesia
I forget where all my love belongs
I get honky tonk amnesia
And sometimes it lasts all night long
She'll accept my story without question
About the overtime I'm puttin' in
Till someone calls, she'll tell them that I'm restin'
While I wonder what I've done and where I've been
I get honky tonk amnesia
I forget where all my love belongs
I get honky tonk amnesia
And sometimes it lasts all night long

Savoy, the home of sweet romance
Savoy, it wins you at a glance

How my heart is singin'
While the band is swingin'
Never tired of rompin'
An' Stompin' with you at the Savoy
What joy, a perfect holiday
Savoy, where we can glide and sway
There let me stomp away with you

Honky Cat
Honky Cat
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John;
and various other artists
When I look back boy I must have been green
Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream
Looking for an answer trying to find a sign
Until I saw your city lights honey I was blind
They said get back honky cat
Better get back to the woods
Well I quit those days and my redneck ways
And oh the change is gonna do me good
You better get back honky cat
Living in the city ain't where it's at
It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine
It's like trying to drink whisky from a bottle of wine
Well I read some books and I read some magazines
About those high class ladies down in New Orleans
And all the folks back home well, said I was a fool
They said oh, believe in the Lord is the golden rule
They said stay at home boy, you gotta tend the farm
Living in the city boy, is going to break your heart
But how can you stay, when your heart says no
How can you stop when your feet say go

Et S'il Fallait Le Faire
Composer(s): Anze Lazio - Fred Blondin
First performance by: Patricia Kaas - 2009
{Fréhel}
Et puis regarde-moi
D'abord, premièrement, c'est une chanson sentimentale
Ça se chante avec tout son cœur
Tiens, regarde!
S'il fallait le faire
J'arrêterais la Terre
J'éteindrais la lumière
Que tu restes endormi
S'il fallait pour te plaire
Lever des vents contraires
Dans un désert sans vie
Je trouverais la mer
Et s'il fallait le faire
J'arrêterais la pluie
Elle fera demi-tour
Le reste de nos vies
S'il fallait pour te plaire
T'écouter chaque nuit
Quand tu parles d'amour
J'en parlerais aussi
Que tu regardes encore
Dans le fond de mes yeux
Que tu y voies encore
Le plus grand des grands feux
Et que ta main se colle
Sur ma peau, où elle veut
Un jour si tu t'envoles
Je suivrai si je peux
Et s'il fallait le faire
Je repousserais l'hiver
À grands coups de printemps
Et de longs matins clairs
S'il fallait pour te plaire
J'arrêterais le temps
Que tous tes mots d'hier
Restent à moi maintenant
Que je regarde encore
Dans le bleu de tes yeux
Que tes deux mains encore
Se perdent dans mes cheveux
Je ferais tout plus grand
Et si c'est trop ou peu
J'aurais tort tout le temps
Si c'est ça que tu veux
Je veux bien tout donner
Si seulement tu y crois
Mon cœur veut bien saigner
Si seulement tu le vois
Jusqu'à n'être plus rien
Que l'ombre de tes nuits
Jusqu'à n'être plus rien
Qu'une ombre qui te suit
Et s'il fallait le faire

Composer(s): Michel Berger
Performer(s): France Gall
Toi, t'aurais voulu jouer Hamlet
Mais les propositions qu'on t'a faites
Ce sont des grands mélos d'amour
Et des feuill'tons au kilomètre
Dans ton uniforme de vedette
Tu fais des shows et des conquêtes
Tu t'es fait débrider les yeux
Mais comment faire pour qu'ils soient bleus
Hong-Kong star
T'es pas né là où tu voulais
T'as pas la peau qu'il te faudrait
Celle du vrai pays du dollar
Hong-Kong Star
Tu n'remercies pas le hasard
Dans ton Las Vegas de bazar
Tu fais tes rêves en blanc et noir
Hong-Kong Star
T'as un chinois dans ton miroir
Tu n'es qu'une Hong Kong Star
Pour jouer avec Faye Dunaway
Tu n'es pas vraiment "on the way"
Pour les jeunes premiers dans ton île
Hollywood c'est un rêve facile
Hong-Kong star
T'es pas né là où tu voulais
T'as pas la peau qu'il te faudrait
Celle du vrai pays du dollar
Hong-Kong Star
Tu n'remercies pas le hasard
Dans ton Las Vegas de bazar
Tu fais tes rêves en blanc et noir

T'as un chinois dans ton miroir
Tu n'es qu'une Hong Kong Star

Performer(s): Siouxsie And The Banshees
Harmful elements in the air
symbols clashing everywhere
Reaps the fields of rice and reeds
while the population feeds
Junk floats on polluted water
an old custom to sell your daughter
Would you like number 23?
Leave your yens on the counter please
Hong Kong Garden
Tourists swarm to see your face
Confuscius has a puzzling grace
Disoriented you enter in
unleashing scent of wild jasmine
Slanted eyes meet a new sunrise
a race of bodies small in size
Chicken Chow Mein and Chop Suey

Love (Sasha Son)
Love
Composer(s): Sasha Son
First performance by: Sasha Son - 2009
I've had it all, as a little child
I've done it all, as a little child
But the pain that I had
For the fame that I got, was for what?
A little girl is crying alone
A little boy, searching for his home
Giving up to a sin for a heart-craving dream
Is that a sin?
If you really love the love you say you love, really love
Then surely that love would love
Then surely that love would love to love you back
If you really love the love you say you love, really love
Then surely that love would love
Then surely that love will love you back
For just one moment, we all wanna be
Just as happy as one can be
(So don't you make the same mistake)
(You gotta give for what you take)
And don't you break
A little girl or boy crying at home alone
A faithful song will lead the way
To make you strong
If you really love the love you say you love, really love
Then surely that love would love
Then surely that love would love to love you back
If you really love the love you say you love, really love
Then surely that love would love
Then surely that love
If you really love
If you really love the love you say you love, really love
Then surely that love would love
Then surely that love would love to love you back
If you really love the love you say you love, really love
Then surely that love would love
Then surely that love
Then surely that love
Then surely that love will love you back
Will love you back
