DOLLY PARTON - Honky Tonk Songs lyrics

rate me

(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
