I?LL NEVER MARRY A HONKY TONK MAN
Fran Powers BMI/ Bobby Jenkins BMI

Verse 1:

You can buy me a drink and I?ll sit at your table.
We?ll dance to the music until we can?t stand.
But don?t ask me if I will be more than your baby.
I?LL NEVER MARRY A HONKY TONK MAN.

Verse 2:

Just like a gentleman courting his lady,
You say all the right things, but don?t make no plans.
You see I?ve already loved one man much like you
And I?ll never give my true lovin? again.

Chorus:
I?LL NEVER MARRY A HONKY TONK
I don?t want to go through that again
I?ll be your baby as long as I can.
But I?LL NEVER MARRY A HONKY TONK MAN.

REPEAT CHORUS AS ABOVE.

Tag: I?ll be your baby as long as I can
But I?LL NEVER MARRY A HONKY TONK MAN.
