Elton John Honky Cat Lyrics

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 ah, mm, mm, mm, mm, oh, Change is gonna do me good

You better get back honky cat
Living in the city Ain't a-where it's at
It's like trying To find gold In a silver mine
It's like trying to drink whiskey 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 fools 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 oo, oo, oo, oo, 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 ah, oo, oo, oo, oo, 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
How can you stop When your feet say go

They said get back honky cat,
Better get back to the woods
Well I quit those days And my redneck ways
And ah, oo, oo, oo, oo, oh, Change is gonna do me good

You better get back honky cat
Living in the city Ain't a-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

Get back honky cat,
Get back honky cat,
Get back, woooo
Get back honky cat,
Get back honky cat,
Get back, woooo
