Ever since he left me I've done nothing but wrong.
Many nights I layed awake and cried.
We was so happy.
My heart was in a whirl,

But now I'm a honky tonk girl.

So turn that jukebox way up high,
And fill my glass up while I cry.
I've lost everything in this world,
And now I'm a honky tonk girl.

(Instrumental)

All he ever gave me was a reason to go bad,
And it's not hard to see just what I am.
I'm ashamed and I'm sorry for everything you see,
But losing him has made a fool of me.

So turn that jukebox way up high,
And fill my glass up while I cry.
I've lost everything in this world,
And now I'm a honky tonk girl.
