The Wild Side Of Life Lyrics - Accept No Substitute: The Definitive Hits - Status Quo

Well you wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you 

You asked me not to call you on the phone 

Well there's something I've been waiting for to tell you 

So I wrote it in the words of a song 

Now the glamour of the gay night-life has lured you 

To the places where the wine and liquor flow 

Well you went to be somebody else's baby 

And forget the truest love you've ever known 

I never knew there were honky-tonk angels 

Oh I might have known you'd never make a wife 

You gave up the only one who ever loved you 

And went back to that wild side of life

Now the glamour of the gay night-life has lured you 

To the places where the wine and liquor flow 

Well you went to be somebody else's baby 

And forget the truest love you've ever known 

I never knew there were honky-tonk angels 

Oh I might have known you'd never make a wife 

You gave up the only one who ever loved you 

And went back to that wild side of life 

I never knew there were honky-tonk angels 

Oh I might have known you'd never make a wife 

You gave up the only one who ever loved you 

And went back to that wild side of life
