You ask me how long I've been drinking
And living this honky tonk life
Well listen girls I'll tell you my story
I'm a mother that was once a happy wife

I'm a girl just like so many others
Neither good nor bad may be a girl like you
And just think what for the grace of God in heaven
It could have been your heart that was broke two

I'm a girl that's left without a future
And the baby boy that has his daddy's name
And the baby looks just like his daddy
But another woman wears my wedding ring
