Ellen Muriel Deason (August 30, 1919 – July 16, 2012), known professionally as Kitty Wells, was an American country music singer. Her 1952 hit recording, "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels", made her the first female country singer to top the U.S. country charts, and turned her into the first female country star. Her Top 10 hits continued until the mid-1960s, inspiring a long list of female country singers who came to prominence in the 1960s. more »

I'm almost ashamed now for people to know 
 That you are the one I once worshipped so 
 For they didn't know you as you were then 
 My used-to-be darling, I can't trust you again 
 
(Chorus:) 
 My used-to-be darling, once loving and sweet 
 Today you're no more than a stranger to me 
 Too far you've drifted in wild, reckless fun 
 My used-to-be darling, just look what you've done 
 As I see you tonight in the dim lights of shame 
 I remember how proudly I once spoke your name 
 As you touch your lips to that bottle of wine 
 I remember the thrill when they used to touch mine 
 (Repeat chorus)
