As I sit here tonight the jukebox playin'

The tune about the wild side of life

As I listen to the words you are sayin'

It brings memories when I was a trusting wife

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels

As you said in the words of your song

Too many times married men

Think they're still single

That has caused many a good girl to go wrong

It's a shame that all the blame is on us women

It's not true that only you men feel the same

From the start

Most every heart that's ever broken

Was because there always was a man to blame

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels

As you said in the words of your song

Too many times married men

Think they're still single

That has caused many a good girl to go wrong
