Honky Tonk Woman

[Verse 1]

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 it off my mind

[Chorus]

It's the honky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 2]

I laid a divorcee in New York City

I had to put up some kind of a fight

The lady then she covered me with roses

She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

[Chorus]

It's the honky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 3]

Strollin' on the boulevards of Paris

Naked as the day that I will die

The sailors, they're so charming there in Paris

But I just don't seem to sail you off my mind

[Chorus]

It's the honky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
