At a truck stop in San Angelo I saw a billboard 'bout this rodeo Last weekend out in El Paso So I signed up to ride I drew a bull called Original Sin Heard he'd killed a couple of men Figured this was somethin' I could win 'Cause the devil's on my side I was havin' myself one hell of a ride When I, I ended up disqualified 'Cause that danged old bull just up and died Before they blew the whistle When I got them North Texas blues Thought, I'd paid all my dues Then them South Texas blues Told me, son you ain't through Had them East Texas blues And them West Texas too I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues I got laid off at Brown and Root On my way back to Cut and Shoot I lost my wristwatch and my boots Shootin' dice with a dude from Houston There ain't no jobs here workin' cattle So I got on part time haulin' gravel With some outfit from Seattle Down here buildin' custom homes When I got them North Texas blues Thought, I'd paid all my dues And then them South Texas blues Told me son you ain't through Had them East Texas blues And them West Texas too I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues, alright I gassed up my truck and packed my clothes Turned in my key and hit the road I said, Cowtown's where I'll go You never know I might get lucky I got a friend there turning knobs At this place called Billy Bob's Said he could get me a job There workin' as a bouncer First night on the job was just insane Some ol' boy got all deranged Hit me in the head with a Harley chain To this day my ears still ring I got them North Texas blues Thought, I'd paid all my dues And them South Texas blues Told me son you ain't through Had them East Texas blues And them West Texas too I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues © SONY/ATV TUNES D/B/A CROSS KEYS PUB; GARY NICHOLSON MUSIC; Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
