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. It's the honky tonk women, That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. I laid a divorcee in New York City, I had to put up some kind of a fight. The lady, then she covered me in roses, She blew my nose and then she blew my mind. It's the honky tonk women, That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. It's the honky tonk women, That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. It's the honky tonk women, That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. |

Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free. Like a worm on a hook, like a knight from some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee. If I, if I have been unkind, I hope that you can just let it go by. If I, if I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you. Like a baby, stillborn, like a beast with his horn I have torn everyone who reached out for me. But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong I will make it all up to thee. I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch, he said to me, "You must not ask for so much." And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door, she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?" Oh like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free. |

Seems I've got to have a change of scene
Cause every night I have the strangest dreams Imprisoned by the way it could have been Left here on my own or so it seems I've got to leave before I start to scream Someone locked the door and turned the key Feeling alright I'm not feeling good myself Feeling alright I don't have to feel alright I'm feeling good myself Boy you sure took me for a ride And even now I sit and wonder why That when I think of you I stop myself from crying I just can't waste my time I must keep trying I've got to stop believing all your lies Cause there's too much to do before I die Chorus Don't you get too lost in all I say But at the time you know I really felt that way But that was then and now you know it's today Lord I can't escape, I guess I'm hHere to stay Till someone comes along to take my place With a different name and a different face Chorus |

Let's go get stoned
Let's go get stoned When your baby won't let you in Got a few pennies, a bottle of gin Just call your buddy on the telephone Let's go get stoned Let's go get stoned Let's go get stoned When you work so hard all the day long And everything you do seems to go wrong Just drop by my place on your way home Let's go get stoned It ain't no harm You're takin just a taste But don't blow your cool And start messing up the place It ain't no harm you're faking just a nip But make sure you don't fall down bust your lip Let's go get stoned Let's go get stoned |

If you're traveling in the north country fair
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there She once was the true love of mine. If you go when the snowflakes storm When the rivers freeze and summer ends Please see if she's a coat so warm To keep her from the howlin' winds. Please see if her hair hangs long If it rolls and flows all down her breast Please see from me if her hair hangs long That's the way I remember her best. I'm a-wonderin' if she remember me at all Many times I've often prayed In the darkness of my night In the brightness of my day. So if you're travelin' in the north country fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine. |

She came in through the bathroom window
Protected by a silver spoon But now she sucks her thumb and wanders By the banks of her own lagoon Didn't anybody tell her? Didn't anybody see? Sunday's on the phone to Monday, Tuesday's on the phone to me She said she'd always been a dancer She worked at 15 clubs a day And though she thought I knew the answer Well I knew what I could not say. And so I quit the police department And got myself a steady job And though she tried her best to help me She could steal but she could not rob Didn't anybody tell her? Didn't anybody see? Sunday's on the phone to Monday, Tuesday's on the phone to me Oh yeah. |

Once I was traveling across the sky
This lovely planet caught my eye And being curious I flew close by And non I'm caught here Until I die Until we die Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together Till we die I lost my memory of where I've been We all forgot that we could fly Someday we'll all change into peaceful man And we'll return into the sky Until we die Until we die Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together Till we die Live together, yeah, Learning to live together Till we die Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together Till we die Hum...Oh... Ah... hum... Until we die Until we die Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together Learning to live together To live together... To live together... To live together |

Woman of the country now I've found you
Longing in your soft and fertile delta And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing for the warmth and tender shelter of my body Oh you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady Please don't ask how many times I found you Standing wet and naked in the garden And I think of days and diff'rent ways I held you Held you closely to me, yes our heart was beating Oh you're my... Oh, and I'm over here in England But I think of you, think about you... Because I love you, There are concrete mountains in the city And pretty city women live inside them And yet it seems the city scene is lacking I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country Oh you're my... |
