Honky Tonk Woman

Jerry Lee Lewis · Other Songs - Jerry Lee Lewis

I met her at a barroom queen down in Memphis

She tried to take me upstairs for a ride

She had to heave me right across her shoulder

'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind



It's just that ho-ho-honky tonk women

Hey gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's just that ho-ho-honky tonk women

Hey gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues



I laid a divorcee in Detroit City

I had to put up some kind of a fight

And that lady then she covered me with roses

She blew my nose, then she blew my mind



Son, it's just that ho-ho-honky tonk women

I said gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's a ho-ho-honky tonk women

Oh, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues



It's that ho-ho-honky tonk women

Oh, Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's a ho-ho-honky tonk women

I said gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues



One more time

Why don't you just gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues?

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

And I just blew my mind
