Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
It's the honky-tonk women
That give me, give me, give me the honky-tonk blues
[Verse 2]
I laid a divorcée 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
[Chorus]
It's the honky-tonk women
That give me, give me, give me the honky-tonk blues
[Chorus]
It's the honky-tonk women
That give me, give me, give me the honky-tonk blues
It's the honky-tonk women
That give me, give me, give me the honky-tonk blues
Written by: Keith Richards, Mick Jagger
