I met a gin soaked,

bar room queen in Memphis,

She tried to take me

upstairs for a ride.

She had to heave me right

across her shoulder

'Cause I just can't seem

to drink you off my mind.

It's the honky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme

the honky tonk blues.

I laid a divorcee in New York City,

I had to put up some kind of a fight.

The lady then she covered me in roses,

She blew my nose and

then she blew my mind.

It's the honky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme

the honky tonk blues.

(Yeah!) It's the honky tonk women.

Gimme, gimme, gimme

the honky tonk blues.

(Yeah!) It's the honky tonk women.

Gimme, gimme, gimme

the honky tonk blues.
