Honky Cat
Elton John
When I look back Boy, I must have been green Boppin' in the country Fishin' in a stream Lookin' 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 oh, oh, oh, oh, the 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 whisky 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 said I was a fool They said believe in the Lord Is the golden rule They said stay at home, boy, you gotta tend the farm Livin' in the city, boy Is gonna break your heart But now can you stay when your heart says no How can you stop When your feet say go70s 80s adult contemporary all of my songs animal songs bluesy british classic classic rock elton john funky gay gute-laune-musik oldies piano piano rock pop pop rock Radiostorm 80s rock singer songwriter singer-songwriter soft rock songwriting Sonne syncopated The British are coming The Most Brilliant Man Alive UK upbeat whiskey songs
