[ti:the wild side of life]

[al:country superstars]
[offset:-100]
[00:08.85] You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
[00:16.69] You asked me not to call you on the phone
[00:24.51] But there's something I'm wanting to tell you
[00:32.46] So I wrote it in the words of this song
[00:40.35][02:02.83] I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
[00:49.26][02:11.65] I might have known you'd never make a wife
[00:56.98][02:19.71] You gave up the only one that ever loved you
[01:05.06][02:27.90] And went back to the wild side of life
[01:30.63] The glamor of the gay night life has lured you
[01:38.31] To the places where the wine and liquor flows
[01:46.33] Where you wait to be anybody's baby
[01:54.78] And forget the truest love you'll ever know
