Me and my best girl just had it out
So I started steppin' out with a honky tonk girl
Thought I'd try to forget it all
Go out and have myself a ball with honky tonk girls
Well I met a little filly
Who was lookin' kind of willin'
And I thought boy you staged 'em right
Just as I started gettin' bolder
Some guy tapped me on the shoulder
Said "What you doin' with my wife?"
And I said kissing sweet lips
And sippin' red wine with honky tonk girls
But that answer didn't get me by
And now I'm lookin' through one eye
For me some more honky tonk girls
[ piano ]
I was kissin' sweet lips
And sipping' red wine with honky tonk girls
Just a spending every dime
Having me a swinging time
With a life full of honky tonk girls
The crowd was shouting "Let's get on with it!"
And soon the stage was covered with honky tonk girls
The dances must have been a little bad
Cause we all got arrested there
For messin' round with honky tonk girls
But I still love those sweet lips
Sippin' that red wine
Lovin' those honky tonk girls
Love those sweet lips
Sippin' that red wine
Lovin' those honky tonk girls
