The Pogues
Honky Tonk Women
[Verse 1]
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 shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

[Chorus]
It's those honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, that gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 2]
I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
I laid her, then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose, then she blew my mind

[Chorus]
It's those honky tonk women
That gimme, that gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues, alright, y'all

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
It's those honky tonk women, yeah
That gimme, gimme, that gimme the honky tonk blues
It's those honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, that gimme the honky tonk blues
