Lyrics:

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
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

It's those honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, that gimme the honky tonk blues

I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
I laid her, then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose, then she blew my mind

It's those honky tonk women
That gimme, that gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues, alright, y'all


It's those honky tonk women, yeah
That gimme, gimme, that gimme the honky tonk blues
It's those honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, that gimme the honky tonk blues
