It doesn't matter who you are, we're all trying to get on
Averyone in his own way, from the day that we are borne
Singles for that ballroom queen that I heard about
Who gets the best of the clientele and lets them make her out
(Chorus)
Well it's alright baby, you changed your life and how
You used to be a honky tonk sister, but you're a lady now
It seemed like love at first sight, I was completely mesmerised
When she turned 'round in that bar, there was fire in her eyes
Thought my search was over now, found that special girl at last
So I took her home with me, I like the lady's cla**
(Chorus & solo)
I had all my tomorrows planned, but how long can it be
Inside we're all honky tonks as far as I can see
I woke up but she was gone, too late I realised
That the lady used me as a stepping stone as she reached for the sky
(Chorus)
