Honky Tonk Angels

(album: Faithless - 1978)

As I sit here tonight, the jukebox playing
That old song about the wild, 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 still single
And that's caused many a good girl to go wrong

It's a shame that all the blame is on us women
It's not true that only you, men, feel the same
From the start most every heart that's been broken
Was because there always was a man to blame

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
And that's caused many a good girl to go wrong

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
And that's caused many a good girl to go wrong

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
And that's caused many a good girl to go wrong

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
And that's caused many a good girl to go wrong
