Well you wouldn't read my letters If I wrote you You urged me not to call you on the phone There's something I've been waiting For to tell you So I wrote it in the words of this song
You never knew there were honky tonk angels Or you might have known I'd never make a wife You walked out on the only one Who ever loved you So I went on back to the wild side of life
Now the climate of all the good life Oh has led me To the places where the wine And the liquor flow I tried to be your one and only angel But I'm not that kind of angel heaven knows No no no no
I cried so hard The day you went and left me 'cause the things you said They cut me like a knife What you wanted was another kind of angel And you sent me back to the wild side or life, no
Well I'm just some trussed up honky tonk angel And I might have known I'd never make a wife Well you left the only one Who ever loved you And I'm back here on the wild side of life
I'm only a honky tonk angel And I might have known I'd never make a wife You walked out on the only one Who ever loved you And you left me here On the wild side of life
