lyrics

[Well the honkey tonk stole my time and liquor owes me money
just about lost my mind when I lost my honey
out of luck and out of line
drank so much they called it a crime]

Well they locked me up and threw away the key
when the booze on my breath proved me guilty
but anybody'd drank that much too
if they'd been through what I been through
I met a man and I fell in love
I thought he was something special sent from up above
I thought that his heart was true
but he left my heart all black and blue
[Chorus]
The police man asked, "Ma'am how much you had tonight?"
I said, "Well, just enough to start a fight,
and I'll prove it to you if you don't treat me right!"
cuz my old man's the one you oughtta be standing down
He built me all the way up just to beat me down
He made my heart break and left me all battered
took our happily ever after and left it shattered
[Chorus]
