Lyrics:

Well you wouldn't read my letters if I wrote youYou asked me not to call you on the phoneWell there's something I've been waiting for to tell youSo I wrote it in the words of a songNow the glamour of the gay night-life has lured youTo the places where the wine and liquor flowWell you went to be somebody else's babyAnd forget the truest love you've ever knownI never knew there were honky-tonk angelsOh I might have known you'd never make a wifeYou gave up the only one who ever loved youAnd went back to that wild side of lifeNow the glamour of the gay night-life has lured youTo the places where the wine and liquor flowWell you went to be somebody else's babyAnd forget the truest love you've ever knownI never knew there were honky-tonk angelsOh I might have known you'd never make a wifeYou gave up the only one who ever loved youAnd went back to that wild side of lifeI never knew there were honky-tonk angelsOh I might have known you'd never make a wifeYou gave up the only one who ever loved youAnd went back to that wild side of life
