The Wild Side of Life Songtext
von Pirates of the Mississippi

Well, you wouldn′t read my letter if I wrote you
You asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something I′ve been wanting 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


Well, the glamour of the night life has called you
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
Where you wait to be anybody′s darlin′
And forget the truest love you ever know

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

You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
