HONKY TONK WOMEN (+G)

I met a gin soaked barroom queen in Memphis

She tried to take me upstairs for a ride

She had to heave me right across her shoulder

Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind


I'm sittin' in a bar tipplin' a jar in Jackson

And on the street the summer sun it shines

There's many a bar room queen I've had in Jackson

But I just can't seem to drink you off my mind


It's the Honky Tonk Women

Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues


I played a divorcee in New York City

I had to put up some kind of a fight

The lady then she covered me in roses

She blew my nose and then she blew my mind


Strollin' on the boulevards of Paris

As naked as the day that I will die

The sailors they're so charming there in Paris

But they just don't seem to sail you off my mind (yeah)


It's the Honky Tonk women

Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues
