Honky Tonk Woman Lyrics

Taj Mahal Honky Tonk Woman

These are honky tonk women
Tryin' to give me, give me, give me their honky tonk
blues

I met a gin-soaked bar-room 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

These are honky tonk women
But now they give me, give me, give me their honky tonk
blues

I laid a divorcée in New York City
Well, I had to put up (huh) some kind of fight
Well, that lady, then she covered me with roses
(Huh) Well, she blew my nose (whew) and then she blew
my mind

But it's the honky tonk women
Tryin' to give me, give me, give me their honky tonk
blues
It's the honky tonk women
Yeah, they give me, give me, give me their honky tonk
blues

It's the honky tonk women
They give me, give me, give me their honky tonk blues

Yeah, they give me, give me, give me their honky tonk
blues

They give me, give me, give me their honky tonk blues
