Yeah, 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 wearin' any shoes, yeah

She lives in LA
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
Woo, hoo, woo, hoo

Well, that dinner broke up at around eleven-thirty
And boys went out to do what boys do
Connie said, 'Hey girls, let's huddle up
Around somethin' 'bout a hundred proof'

She lives in LA
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
Woo, hoo, woo, hoo

Well, at nine AM out in front of that church
People goin' nuts lookin' for the groom
Somebody says, 'Hey
By the way, where's Connie?'
She's run off with that boy to Cancun, yeah

She lives in LA
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
Woo, hoo, woo, hoo
