"You Can't Take The Honky Tonk (Out Of The Girl)" by Brooks & Dunn (Bob DiPiero/Bart Allmand)

1st Verse

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 wadn't wearin' any shoes, yeah

Chorus

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
Woo, hoo, woo, hoo

2nd Verse

Well, that dinner broke up at around 11:30
And boys went out to do what boys do
Connie said, 'Hey girls, let's huddle up
Around somethin' 'bout a hundred proof'

(Repeat Chorus)

3rd Verse

Well, at nine A.M. 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

(Repeat Chorus)
