[1] She's there at the bar every evening
Face powdered and cheeks painted [5] red
Her [1] beauty has faded too early
Brought on by the [5] fast life she's [1] led
She's [4] more to be pitied than [1] scolded
She needs to be loved not [5] despised
Too [1] much beer and wine too [5] many good [1] times
The lure of the honky tonk [5] wrecked her young [1] life
She once was the belle of the ballroom
She'd a-made some man a sweet wife
But too many parties the wrong side of town
Ruined her happy young life
[1] She's there at the bar every evening
Face powdered and cheeks painted [5] red
Her [1] beauty has faded too early
Brought on by the [5] fast life she's [1] led
She's [4] more to be pitied than [1] scolded
She needs to be loved not [5] despised
Too [1] much beer and wine too [5] many good [1] times
The lure of the honky tonk [5] wrecked her young [1] life
She once was the belle of the ballroom
She'd a-made some man a sweet wife
But too many parties the wrong side of town
Ruined her happy young life
