Lyrics
The Wild Side Of Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
You asked me not to call you on the phone
For there's something I 'm wanting to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
And I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life.
Yes, it hurt me to know that you don't love me
Though I know our love's forever gone
And it's killed my soul and pride dear inside me
When I saw you in that stranger's arms so long.
And I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life.
I'll just live my life alone with mem'ries of you
And dream of kisses traded for my tears
And no one will ever know how much I love you
And I pray that you'll be happy through the years.
And I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
And went back to the wild side of life
