(Dolly Parton)
|
Bartender won't you pour me a very strong drink
|
Just keep it coming till I don't have to think
|
And point out some cowboy that might want to dance
|
And make sure I get home if you see that I can't
|
|
You see I loved him, he left me for a girl half my age
|
I relate to each sad song that ole jukebox has played
|
I listen to Haggard, ole Hank, and George Jones
|
But why don't more women sing honky tonk songs?
|
|
Why don't more women sing honky-tonk songs?
|
About the heartaches and the tough breaks
|
And the men that's done 'em wrong
|
There are others just like me that are hurtin' to the bone
|
So why don't more women sing honky-tonk songs
|
|
Why don't more women sing honky tonk songs
|
Honky tonk angels are just queens without thrones
|
Judge not lest you be judged, who can cast the first stone
|
Why don't more women sing honky-tonk songs
|
|
Bartender won't you pour me a very strong drink
|
Just keep it coming till I don't have to think
|
And point out some cowboy that might want to dance
|
And make sure I get home if you see that I can't
|
|
(All you lonely women sing)
|
Why don't more women sing honky tonk songs
|
About the heartaches and the tough breaks
|
And all the men that's done us wrong
|
There's a whole lotta women I know would sing along
|
So why don't more women sing honky tonk songs
|
|
Why don't more women sing honky tonk songs
