Elton John - Honky Cat - Session Demo lyrics

Artist: Elton John

album: Honky Château (50th Anniversary Edition)


When I look back, boy, I must have been green
Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream
Looking for an answer, trying 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, hm-hm-hm-hm, oh, the change is gonna do me good
You better get back, honky cat
Living in the city ain't where it's at
It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine
It's like trying 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
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, change is gonna do me good

They said, get back, honky cat
Better get back to the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, change is gonna do me good
They said, stay at home, boy, you gotta tend the farm
Living in the city, boy, is going to break your heart
But how can you stay when your heart says no?
Haha, how can you stop when your feet say go?
You better get back, honky cat
Better get back to the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, the change is gonna do me good
You better get back, honky cat
Living in the city ain't where it's at
It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine
It's like trying to drink whiskey, oh, from a bottle of wine
Oh yeah, get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat, get back, whoo
Get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat, get back, whoo
Oh, get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat, get back, whoo
Get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat, get back, get back, whoo
Get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat, get back, whoo
Get back, honky cat
Get back, get back, honky cat, woo
Get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat, get back, whoo, whoo, whoo
Oh, get back, honky cat
Get back, get back, oh yeah, whoo, oh yeah, hey
