You ask me how long I've been drinking And living this honky tonk life Well listen girls I'll tell you my story I'm a mother that was once a happy wife I'm a girl just like so many others Neither good nor bad may be a girl like you And just think what for the grace of God in heaven It could have been your heart that was broke two I'm a girl that's left without a future And the baby boy that has his daddy's name And the baby looks just like his daddy But another woman wears my wedding ring
