Neko Case
Honky Tonk Hiccups
[Chorus]
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
Honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I found the cure on the hardwood floor

[Verse 1]
When I got home from work, I was feeling pretty fine
'Til I started getting hiccups 'round suppertime
Held my breath 'til I hit the floor
But the hiccups kept coming even more, more, more

[Verse 2]
I asked my baby to stand up on a chair
And when I wasn't looking, she would give me a scare
I drank a glass of water and I blew into a bag
But the hiccups kept a-comin', a nag, nag, nag

[Chorus]
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
Honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I found the cure on the hardwood floor

[Verse 3]
Well I was feeling low, but my baby made me go
Down to the honky tonk and hillbilly show
An hour in the line-up and I finally made the door
But the hiccups kept a-coming even more, more, more
[Verse 4]
First I heard the music and then I felt a beat
And that's when I knew that the hiccups would retreat
I headed for the dance floor, I really did my best
I did The Rump Jump, I guess the whiskey did the rest

[Chorus]
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
Honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I found the cure on the hardwood floor

[Chorus]
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I got the honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
Honky tonk hiccups, ready steady go
I found the cure on the hardwood floor

[Outro]
I found the cure on the hardwood floor
The only cure is the hardwood floor
(Hic!)
