Wild Side of Life

Well you wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you And you asked me not to call you on the phone Well there's one thing I've been wanting for to tell you So I wrote it in the words of this song Now the glamour of the gay night-life has lured you To the places where the wine and liquor flow Well you went to be somebody else's baby And forget the truest love you've ever known I never knew there were honky-tonk angels Though I might have known you'd never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to the wild side of life Now the glamour of the gay night-life has lured you To the places where the wine and liquor flow Well you went to be somebody else's baby And forget the truest love you've ever known I never knew there were honky-tonk angels Though I might have known you'd never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to the wild side of life I never knew there were honky-tonk angels Though I might have known you'd never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to the wild side of life Repeat last verse and fade.
