Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you you asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you so I wrote it in the words of this song
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you and went back to the wild side of life
