| I just met Huston, he was lookin' for your door
|
| He said he’d like to buy a horse
|
| I saw he had a map of the county in his hand
|
| He had your house circled red
|
| Cherokee is too damn far to come back by
|
| And ol' Huston needs a ride
|
| You just missed Huston, he was lookin' so confused
|
| I guess he really needed you
|
| He was old and tired and looking for the truth
|
| I guess ol' Huston’s got the blues
|
| Cherokee is too damn far to go back dry
|
| I promise Huston I’ll try
|
| You ain’t givin' up on lookin' for your thing
|
| Even if you prob’ly should
|
| I’m sorry, Huston, I ain’t got what you need
|
| But I promise you, I’d help you if I could
|
| You ain’t givin' up on lookin' for your thing
|
| Even if you prob’ly should
|
| I’m sorry, Huston, I ain’t got what you need
|
| But I promise you, I’d help you if I could
|
| Cherokee is too damn far to go back dry |
