              honky - derogatory slang word for "white person," 1967, black slang, of unknown origin, perhaps from late 19c. hunky "East-Central European immigrant," a colloquial shortening of Hungarian. Honky in the sense of "factory hand" is attested from 1946.

                      My guess is it came from the red necks that went "Honky Tonking" at their local country bar as they called it or in todays terms, "Pub Crawling".

                          Any idea why the red necks started calling it Honky Tonking?

                              makes more sense than being called an Eastern Euro Immigrant.

                                It evolved from the word Hungarian just like ****** evolved from the word Nigeria.
