I met a gin soaked,
bar-room queen in Memphis. She
tried to take me up-

stairs for a ride. She
had to heave me right across
her shoulder. 'Cause I

just can’t seem to drink
you off my mind. It’s the hon-
ky tonk women That

gimme, gimme, gim-
me the honky tonk blues. I
laid a divorcee

in New York City
I had to put up some kind
of a fight The la-

dy then she covered
me in roses… She blew my
nose and then she blew

my mind. It’s the hon-
ky tonk women That gimme,
gimme, gimme the

honky tonk blues. It’s
the honky tonk women That
gimme, gimme, gim-

me the honky tonk
blues. It’s the honky tonk wo-
men That gimme, gim-

me, gimme the hon-
ky tonk blues …
…

<Guitar can fill in the end of the final verse>
Do did I screw up or am I able to count or not?

/youtube honky tonk woman

Didn’t Mick sing it the haiku way?

A bit over-articulated, but
If you will be my
Dixie Chicken, I will be
your Tennessee lamb

- @2many2no So far this seems to be the only post that comes close to incorporating kiru and kireji. Well done.

- @2many2no Heh. I recognized the song. But I was impressed that you were able to parse through and find such a strong example.

This song is just six words long
Yeah just six words long

Have no master suite
I’m gonna soak up the sun
So I can rock on
