Waylon Jennings & Jessi Colter - Wild Side Of Life lyrics

[Verse 1:Waylon Jeninngs] You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you You asked me not to call you on the phone But there's something I'm wanting to tell you So I wrote it in the words of this song [Chorus] I didn't know God made honky tonk angels I might have known you'd never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to the wild side of life [Instrumental] [Verse 2: Jessi Colter] As I sit here tonight the jukebox's playing A song bout the wild side of life As I listen to the words you are saying It brings memories when I was a trusting wife It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels As you say in the words of your song Too many times married men think they're single And it haunts a million poor girls to go wrong [Chorus] [Outro] They go back to the wild side of life...
