Honky Cat

In the style of

Elton John

Lyrics

when i look back
boy i must've
been green
boppin' in the country
fishin' in a stream

looked for an answer
tryin' 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-a
hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
oh a change is gonna
do me good

you better
get back
honky cat
livin' in the city
ain't where it's at
it's like

tryin' to find gold in a
silver mine it's like
tryin' to drink whiskey
oh
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
get back
honky cat
better get back
to the woods

but i
quit those days
and my
redneck ways
and

ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
oh a change is gonna
do me good
oh alright

they said
get back
honky cat
better get back
to the woods

well i
quit those days
and my
redneck ways and-a
ooh ooh ooh ooh
oh a change is gonna
do me good

they said stay at home
boy you gotta
tend the farm
livin' in the city boy is
is gonna break
your heart

but how can you stay
when your
heart says no ha ha
how can you stop
when your
feet say go

you better
get back
honky cat
ya better get back
to the woods

well i
quit those days
and my
redneck ways and-a
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
oh the change
is gonna do me good

you better
get back
honky cat
livin' in the city
ain't-a where it's at
it's like

tryin' to find gold in a
silver mine it's like
tryin' to drink whiskey
oh
from a bottle of wine

oh yeah
get back honky cat
