Wild Side Of Life

Well you wouldn't read my letters

If i wrote you

You urged me not to call you on the phone

There's something i've been waiting

For to tell you

So i wrote it in the words of this song



You never knew there were honky tonk angels

Or you might have known

I'd never make a wife

You walked out on the only one

Who ever loved you

So i went on back to the wild side of life



Now the climate of all the good life

Oh has led me

To the places where the wine

And the liquor flow

I tried to be your one and only angel

But i'm not that kind of angel heaven knows

No no no no



I cried so hard

The day you went and left me

'cause the things you said

They cut me like a knife

What you wanted was another kind of angel

And you sent me back to the wild side or life, no



Well i'm just some trussed up honky tonk angel

And i might have known

I'd never make a wife

Well you left the only one

Who ever loved you

And i'm back here on the wild side of life



I'm only a honky tonk angel

And i might have known i'd never make a wife

You walked out on the only one

Who ever loved you

And you left me here

On the wild side of life
