Honky Tonk Angeles

You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you You asked me not to call you on the phone But there's something I'm wanting to tell you So I wrote it in the words of this song. I didn't know God made honky tonk angels I might have known you'd never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to the wild side of life. --- Instrumental --- As I sit here tonight the jukebox's playin' Your song bout the wild side of life As I listen to the words you are sayin' It brings mem'ries when I was a trusting wife. It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels As you say in the words of your song Too many times married men think they're single And it haunts a million poor girls to go wrong. It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels I might have known you'd never make a wife Too many times married men think they're single And go back to the wild side of life. They go back to the wild side of life...
