[Verse]
I was Eborn a ramblin? man
With swamp Awater on my Ehand
Daddy died young and I had to help momma get B7by
So I Elearned how to sing those songs
I learned how to Ahonky-tonk Emo^an
And learned to sleep in a B7different bed every Enight.
ESometimes we slept in the car
Lots of Atimes we slept some old in a Ebar
Well then we got a bus and we, thought we were flyin? real B7high
But the Ebest place I ever stayed
Were I really lAearned how sing and to Eplay
I got the good times on my B7mind at the Hotel EWhiskey.
[Chorus 1]
Lord I Ewant Gto Ago Bbback B7down there to Hotel EWhiskey
Oh I wanna drink and dance and watch the ladies prance and get B7frisky

No I?m Enot gonna worry about drivin? a car
I?ll go Aup and get a room and bring my old guitar
I got the Egood times on my B7mind down there at the Hotel EWhiskey.
[Verse]

And Atalk to that gal that?s got my heart in her hand
I got the Egood times on my B7mind at the Hotel EWhiskey.
