Dave Dudley – 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues

I keep the radio on most all night long listen to the songs they play

Sometimes I hum tap along with my thumb listen to the words they say

And I have to admit those yesterday hits take me back a year or two

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues for you

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues

Well I need help when I hear No Help Wanted

Remembering where we first heard Lovesick Blues

Old songs make me wonder what you’re doing

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues

Gonna play this song for Rollin’ John the Wild Side Of Life

It’s Rolly Polly a golden oldie for Carl and his brand new wife

Makes me feel sad but it ain’t half bad rememberin’ the things I’d do

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues for you

I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues

Well I need help…
