[Instrumental Intro]

[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
I just can't seem to drink it off my mind

[Chorus]
It’s the honky tonk, honkey tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 2]
I laid a divorcee somewhere in Dallas
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, honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Alright

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Chorus]
It's the honky tonk, honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Honky tonk, honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
[Audience Applause]
