[Verse 1]
Oh, down leavin' sun
Done did everything that needs done
Woe is me
Why can’t I see?
I best be leavin' well enough alone

[Verse 2]
Them neon-lightin' nights, couldn’t stay out of fights
Keep a-hauntin' me in memories
Well, there's one in every crowd
For cryin' out loud
Why was it always turnin' out to be me?

[Chorus]
Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
It seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawkin' them tables
And generally blowin' all my hard-earned pay
Piano rolled blues, dancеd holes in my shoes
Therе weren't another other way to be
For lovable losers and no-account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me

[Chorus]
Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
It seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawkin’ them tables
And generally blowin’ all my hard-earned pay
Piano rolled blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For lovable losers and no-account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me
[Chorus]
Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
It seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawkin’ them tables
And generally blowin' all my hard-earned pay
Piano rolled blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For lovable losers and no-account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me, yeah

[Outro]
Honky tonk heroes like me
