You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
You asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something that I've just got to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
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
It hurts me to know that he don't love me
And I know that our love is forever gone
And it just killed my soul and pride deep inside
When I saw you in that stranger's arms so long
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels...
