Got these calluses from all those nights
Spent playing a telecaster, till my fingers bled bud light
I got this scar in a beer bar brawl
Outside of Tuscaloosa, stitched it up in a bathroom stall
And I got this tattoo in the back of a pool room in east Tennessee
Oh, I got a long honkey-tonk history
See this solid gold watch change hand
Took it off a Texas oil tycoon in a backwoods poker game
Look at these holes in my tailgate
Their from Suzy Johnson's husband's snub nose 38
Thank god he's a bad shot and I had that toolbox, between him and me
Right or wrong that's my honkey-tonk history
I love the smell of cigarette's
And whiskey on a woman's breath
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
Blame it on my honkey-tonk history, oh
I'm just like my daddy and my daddy's daddy
(And his daddy before him)
I'm just like my daddy, and his daddy's daddy
(And his daddy before him)
I love the smell of cigarette's
And whiskey on a woman's breath
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
Right or wrong just carrying on my honkey-tonk, honkey-tonk history
Yeah, oh ho
Spent playing a telecaster, till my fingers bled bud light
I got this scar in a beer bar brawl
Outside of Tuscaloosa, stitched it up in a bathroom stall
And I got this tattoo in the back of a pool room in east Tennessee
Oh, I got a long honkey-tonk history
See this solid gold watch change hand
Took it off a Texas oil tycoon in a backwoods poker game
Look at these holes in my tailgate
Their from Suzy Johnson's husband's snub nose 38
Thank god he's a bad shot and I had that toolbox, between him and me
Right or wrong that's my honkey-tonk history
I love the smell of cigarette's
And whiskey on a woman's breath
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
Blame it on my honkey-tonk history, oh
I'm just like my daddy and my daddy's daddy
(And his daddy before him)
I'm just like my daddy, and his daddy's daddy
(And his daddy before him)
I love the smell of cigarette's
And whiskey on a woman's breath
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
Right or wrong just carrying on my honkey-tonk, honkey-tonk history
Yeah, oh ho

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
