|
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 |
|
The glamor of the gay night life has lured you |
|
To the places where the wine and liquor flows |
|
Where you wait to be anybody's baby |
|
And forget the truest love you'll ever know |
|
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 |
