I met a gin-soaked barroom 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 of my mind
It’s the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk girls
It’s the honky tonk women - yeah
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk girls
I played a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady there she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
It’s the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk girls
It’s the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk girls
Yeah it’s the honky tonk women
Gimme
Gimme
Gimme
The honky tonk girl
