George Harvey Strait (born May 18, 1952) is an American country music artist. George Strait has marked a monumental career achievement by having more number one hit singles than any living artist, a total of 52, second only to the late Conway Twitty. Out of all the new country singers to emerge in the early '80s, George Strait stayed the closest to traditional country. Drawing from both the honky tonk and Western swing traditions, Strait didn't refashion the genres; instead, he revitalized them for a new decade. In the process, he became one of the most popular and influential singers of the decade, sparking a wave of neo-traditionalist singers from Randy Travis and Dwight Yoakam to Clint Black, Garth Brooks, and Alan Jackson.

Honk If You Honky Tonk Lyrics

George Strait

Well, I got a bumper sticker
On the back of my truck
There ain’t another like it
‘Cause I had it made up
I can tell who’s behind me
They give themselves away
Lay on their horn when they read this phrase

Chorus:
Honk if you honky tonk
Don’t if you don’t
But, if you do
Don’t you love to
Honk if you honky tonk

Me and Friday night go hand in hand
Ice cold beer and a swingin’ band
A girl on my arm that won’t let go
She caught my little sign about a mile ago

Repeat Chorus

Well, just the other day I was cruisin’ through town
Sheriff pulled me over, I thought I had it now
I rolled down my window, he said with a grin
“I want one of them stickers or I’m gonna run you in.”

Repeat Chorus twice

Honk if you honky tonk

I hear ya honkin’, yeah
I’m pullin’ over,
Let’s honky tonk
