(Arthur Leo Owens - Sanger D. Shafer)

She'd be hurt if she knew I was drinking
Cause one's too much and twelve just ain't enough
She knows how it messes up my thinking
How it makes me look for someone else to love.

I get honky tonk amnesia
And I forget where all my love belongs
I get honky tonk amnesia
And sometimes it lasts all night long.

--- Instrumental ---

She'll accept my story without question
About the overtime I'm puttin' in
If someone calls she'll tell them that I'm resting
While I wonder what I've done and where I've been.

I get honky tonk amnesia
And I forget where all my love belongs
I get honky tonk amnesia
And sometimes it lasts all night long.

And sometimes it lasts all night long...
