(verse 1)
Yea Connie came back for a second cousin's wedding,
First time she's been home in a year or two,
Just in time for the rehearsal dinner,
That crazy Connie wasn't wearin any shoes, yea
(chorus)
She lives in L.A. flies to New York city,
That woman's been around the world
You can take the girl out of the honky tonk,
But you can't take the honky tonk,
Take the honky tonk, out of the girl,
That dinner broke up about around eleven-thirty,
Boy's went out to do what boy's do,
Connie said hey girls, let's huddle up,
Round somethin bout a hundred proof,
(chorus)
She lives in L.A. flies to New York city,
That woman's been around the world
You can take the girl out of the honky tonk,
But you can't take the honky tonk,
Take the honky tonk, out of the girl,
(verse 3)
Well at nine a.m. out in front of that church,
People goin nuts, lookin for the groom,
Somebody say', by the way where's Connie,
She's run off with that boy to Cancoon, yea,
(chorus)
She lives in L.A. flies to New York city,
That woman's been around the world
You can take the girl out of the honky tonk,
But you can't take the honky tonk,
Take the honky tonk, out of the girl,
