1. I met a gin soaked barroom queen in Memphis, she tried to take me upstairs for a ride.

2. I laid a divorcee in New York City, I had to put up some kind of a fight.

1. She had to heave me right across her shoulder, ‘cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind.

2. The lady then she covered me in roses, she blew my nose and then she blew my mind.

It's the Ho...................nky Tonk Women, give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues.
