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
'Cause they look the same to me
Just out here making a living
With this six-string in my hand
21st Century honky tonk American band
Play just about anywhere
Draw 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
I don't think ol' Waylon Jennings
Would've even done it this way
Just out here making a living
Trying to be a (?) 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
A 21st Century honky tonk American band
There's 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
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
