Honky Tonk Women Live At The Roundhouse / 1971 by The Rolling Stones Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2015

[Intro]
On trumpet, Jim Price
On saxophone and tequila, Bobby Keys
...
On the piano, Nicky Hopkins

This is the last gig on this tour, so
What was I going to tell to you-
We want you to open your lungs, your lungs with us on this one, please
Woo!

[Verse 1]
I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
Yes! She had to heave me right across her shoulder
I just don't seem to drink you off my mind
That's the honky tonk women


[Chorus]
It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
[Verse 2]
I laid a divorcee in New York City
I tried to put up some kind of a fight, yeah!
The lady, wеll, she covered mе in roses
She blew my nose, and then she blew my mind
Oh yeah, come on, sing it with me

[Chorus]
It's the honky tonk women
They gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Woo!
It's the honky tonk, honky tonk women, yeah
They gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's the honky tonk, honky tonk women, yes
They gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

Wooee! All right! All right all right all right all right...
