"Honky Tonk Girl" lyrics

"Honky Tonk Girl"

Ever since you left me I've done nothing but wrong
Many nights I've laid awake and cried
We were so happy, my heart was in a whirl
But now I'm a Honky Tonk girl

So turn that Jukebox way up high
And fill my glass up while I cry
I've lost ev'rything in this world
And now I'm a Honky Tonk girl

I just can't make a right with all of my wrongs
Ev'ry ev'ning of my life seems so long
I'm sorry and ashamed for all these things you see
But losin' him has made a fool of me

So fill my glass up to the brim
To lose my mem-o-ry of him
I've lost ev'rything in this world
And now I'm a Honky Tonk girl
I've lost ev'rything in this world
And now I'm a Honky Tonk girl
