Thank you, my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for posting the audio recording of Loretta Lynn performing I'm A Honky Tonk Girl
"Lynn wrote this song on a guitar bought by her husband Doolittle Lynn. She recalled: "When I wrote this song, I didn't think anybody would ever hear this song. Doo bought me this little ol' $17 guitar. I thought it was the greatest thing I ever had, you know? It probably was. I wrote this song in about twenty minutes. I never dreamed that song would be heard, but then it was a single."
I'm A Honky Tonk Gir written by Loretta Lynn
Lyrics
"Ever since you left me I've done nothing but wrong.
Many nights I've layed awake and cried.
We was so happy, my heart was in a whirl,
But now I'm a honky tonk girl.
So turn that jukebox way up high,
And fill my glass up while I cry.
I've lost everything in this world,
And now I'm a honky tonk girl.
--- Instrumental ---
All he ever gave me was a reason to go bad,
And it's not hard to see just what I am.
I'm ashamed and I'm sorry for everything you see,
But losing him has made a fool of me.
So turn that jukebox way up high,
And fill my glass up while I cry.
I've lost everything in this world,
And now I'm a honky tonk girl..."

Lt Col Charlie Brown - Like the old classic country way more than the new stuff.
