It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels

(j. d. miller)


As I sit here tonight, the jukebox playing


The tune about the wild side of life

As I listen to the words you are saying


It brings mem'ries when I was a trustful wife



Chorus:


It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels

As you said in the words of your song


Too many times married men think they're still single


That has caused many a good girl to go wrong



It's a shame that all the blame is on us women

It's not true that only you men feel the same


From the start, 'most every heart that's ever broken


Was because there always was a man to blame



(chorus)
