As I sit here tonight the jukebox playing
A tune about the wilder side of life
And as I listen to the words that you are saying
Brings memories of when I was a trusting wife

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
Like you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
That has 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 ever broken
Was because there always was a man to blame

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

All right now

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