No. 82 Lyrics - Bonnie Owens

They warned me not to look at you and flirt with you for fun 

They said your book of broken hearts had names of eighty one 

But still one night I let myself get much too close to you 

And the sunrise found me number eighty two 

Sometimes when the honky tonks have closed I hear from you 

The time has hushed and you have missed the chance with someone new 

I don't know how I keep on loving you the way I do 

And stand the shame of number eighty two 

[ steel ] 

I know that I'm a fool to let your lips touch mine again 

In front of me your arms have been around my closest friend 

But I can't stop my wild desire from giving in to you 

Or hide the love of number eighty two 

Sometimes when the honky tonks...
