[Verse 1] I'm sittin' in a bar, tippin' a jar in Jackson And on the street the summer sun it shines There's many a barroom queen I've had in Jackson But I just can't seem to drink you off my mind [Chorus] It's the honky tonk women Give me, Give me, Give me 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 she all dressed me up in roses She blew my nose and then she blew my mind [Chorus 3x]
