[Verse 1: Male Vocalist]
In a small town, Friday night,
Neon lights and cowboy boots,
He's been workin' hard all week,
Now he's here to cut loose.
[Chorus: Male Vocalist]
He’s a honky-tonk hero, just tryin' to get by,
With a song in his heart and a tear in his eye,
Life's been rough, but he’s still gonna try,
To be a honky-tonk hero, till the day he dies.
[Verse 2: Male Vocalist]
Lost love and broken dreams,
Whiskey nights and smoky bars,
He's seen it all, lived it all,
In these old guitar scars.
[Chorus]
He’s a honky-tonk hero, just tryin' to get by,
With a song in his heart and a tear in his eye,
Life's been rough, but he’s still gonna try,
To be a honky-tonk hero, till the day he dies.
[Guitar Solo]
