Dear mother I am writing you to tell the truth about me
That I'm not the country music star we both hoped that I'd be
And though I've found some fame and I've found some fortune
It's of a different kind at a honky-tonk
Where people drink blue ribbon not red wine
Cause this ain't no red wine drinking party where I'm at
It's not the kind of place to meet movie stars, rich folks or diplomats
And it's the kind of place where people's faces are long and lights are dim
And if this was a red wine party, they would not let me in
And I met a girl here in this world, she comes from San Joaquin
Her family's worked the orange groves there since 1963
And we don't have much, just the two of us
In a house with not much space
We spend our time in honky-tonks
We both have learned our place
Cause this ain't no red wine drinking party where I'm at
It's not the kind of place to meet movie stars, rich folks or diplomats
And it's the kind of place where people's faces are long and lights are dim
And if this was a red wine party, they would not let us in
And if this was a red wine party, they would not let us in
That I'm not the country music star we both hoped that I'd be
And though I've found some fame and I've found some fortune
It's of a different kind at a honky-tonk
Where people drink blue ribbon not red wine
Cause this ain't no red wine drinking party where I'm at
It's not the kind of place to meet movie stars, rich folks or diplomats
And it's the kind of place where people's faces are long and lights are dim
And if this was a red wine party, they would not let me in
And I met a girl here in this world, she comes from San Joaquin
Her family's worked the orange groves there since 1963
And we don't have much, just the two of us
In a house with not much space
We spend our time in honky-tonks
We both have learned our place
Cause this ain't no red wine drinking party where I'm at
It's not the kind of place to meet movie stars, rich folks or diplomats
And it's the kind of place where people's faces are long and lights are dim
And if this was a red wine party, they would not let us in
And if this was a red wine party, they would not let us in
