(With Loretta Lynn)
As I sit here tonight
The jukebox playing
The tune about the wild
Side of life
As I listen to the words
You are saying
It brings memories
When I was a trustful wife
It wasn't God
Who made honky tonk angels
As you wrote 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
As you wrote 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
