you can't take the honky tonk out of the girl

connie came back for 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 the girl out of the honky tonk

but you can't take the honky tonk

take the honky tonk.out of the girl

well the dinner broke up at around 11:30

boys went out to do what boys do

and connie said hey girls lets huddle up

around something 'bout a hundred proof

well at nine a.m. out in front of that church

people are going nuts looking for the groom

and sombody says hey bonnie by the way where is connie

she's run off with that boy to cancun
