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 they made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one who really loved you
And went back to the wild side of life

The glamor of the gay night life has lured you
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
You just sit and wait to be anybody's baby
And forget the truest love you'll ever know

I didn't know they made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one who really loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
