I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in memphis
He tried to take me upstairs for a ride
He had to heave me right across his shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind
I'm the honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme a honky tonk man
I laid a VIP in New York city,
But I had to put myself out of some kind of a fight
Then later the man covered me with roses
He blew my nose and then he blew my mind
I'm a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme a honky tonk man
(yeah!) I'm a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme a honky tonk man
(yeah!) I'm a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme a honky tonk man
