As I sit here tonight the jukebox playing

A tune about the wilder side of life

And as I listen to the words that you are saying

Brings memories of when I was a trusting wife.

It wasn't god who made honky tonk angels

Like you said in the words of your song

Too many times married men think they're still single

That has caused many a good girl to go wrong.

It's a shame that all the blame is on us women

It's not true that only you men feel the same

From the start most every heart that's ever broken

Was because there always was a man to blame.

It wasn't god who made honky tonk angels

Like you said in the words of your song

Too many times married men think they're still single

And has caused many a good girl to go wrong.

All right now.

It wasn't god who made honky tonk angels

Like you said in the words of your song

Too many times married men think they're still single

That has caused many a good girl to go wrong

Yeah, that has caused many a good girl to go wrong.
