Honky Tonk Women     (Jagger/Richards)

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

It's the Honky Tonk Women
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 nad then she blew my mind

It's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, Gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Alright!

It's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, Gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
