You Can't Take The Honky Tonk Out Of The Girl

Connie came back for her second cousin's wedding

First time she'd been home in a year or two

Just in time for the rehersal dinner

That crazy Connie wasn't wearin' any shoes



Yea, She lives in L.A, she flies to New York City

That woman's been around the world

You can take the girl out of the Honky Tonk

But you can't take the Honky Tonk

Take the Honky Tonk

Outta the girl



Well that dinner broke up at around 11:30

Boys went out to do what boys do

Connie said "hey girls lets huddle up

round somethin' bout' a hundred proof"



She lives in L.A, she flies to New York City

That woman's been around the world

You can take the girl out of the Honky Tonk

But you can't take the Honky Tonk

Take the Honky Tonk

Outta the girl



Well at nine a.m out in front of that church

People goin' nuts lookin' for the groom

Somebody says "Hey by the way where's Connie"

She's run off with that boy to Cancun



Yea she lives in L.A, she flies to New York City

That woman's been around the world

You can take the girl out of the Honky Tonk

But you can't take the Honky Tonk

Take the Honky Tonk

Outta the girl
