Intro

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 shoulders
cause I just can't seem to drink her off my mind
Shes a Ho - nky-tonk woman
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie those honky-tonk blues
I layed divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
