As I sit here tonight, the jukebox playing

The tune about the wild side of life

As I listen to the words you are saying

It brings mem'ries when I was a trustful wife



CHORUS:

It wasn't god who made honky tonk angels

As 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



REPEAT CHORUS
