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 God made honky tonk angels
|
I might have known you'd never make a wife
|
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
|
And went back to the wild side of life
|
[ fiddle ]
|
The glamour of the gay night life has lured you
|
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
|
Where you wait to be anybody's baby
|
And forget the truest love you'll ever know
|
I didn't know God made...
|
