Rod Stewart — The Wild Side of Life Live

[Intro] Take me back to the wild side, honey 'Cause that's where I belong [Verse 1] You wouldn't read my letters if I wrote them, yes, yes You ask me not to call you on the telephone, woo But there's something I've been waiting for to tell ya, yeah I wrote it in the words of this song [Chorus] 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 on back to the wild side of life [Verse 2] The glamour of the gay nightlife has lured you To the places where the wine and liquor flow You wait to be somebody else's baby, yeah Forget the truest love that you'll ever know, tell me, honey [Chorus] 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 on back to the wild side of life [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] The glamour of the gay nightlife has lured you, yeah To the places where the wine and liquor flow, you know why, baby You wait to be somebody else's baby And forget the truest love you'll ever know [Chorus] 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 on back to the wild side of life, that's right, baby
