You Can't Take The Honky Tonk Out Of The Girl

Connie came back from her second cousin's wedding
First time she'd been home in a year or two
Just in time for the rehearsal dinner
That crazy Connie wasn't wearing any shoes

She lives in L.A. she flies to New York City
That woman's been around the world
You can take that girl out of the honky tonk
But you can't take the honky tonk, take the honky tonk out of the girl
(Ooh-ooh-ooh...)

Well the dinner broke up at around 11:30
And the boys went off to do what boys will do
Connie said come hey girls, let's huddle up
Around something 'bout a hundred proof

She lives in L.A. she flies to New York City
That woman's been around the world
You can take that girl out of the honky tonk
But you can't take the honky tonk, take the honky tonk out of the girl
(Ooh-ooh-ooh...)

It's nine a.m. in front of the church
People are going nuts just looking for the groom
Somebody says "Hey, by the way, where's Connie?"
She's run off with that boy in Cancun

She lives in L.A. she flies to New York City
That woman's been around the world
You can take that girl out of the honky tonk
But you can't take the honky tonk, take the honky tonk out of the girl
(Ooh-ooh-ooh...)
