London Homesick Blues |
| Well when you’re down on your luck |
| And you ain’t got a buck |
| In London you’re a goner |
| Even London Bridge has fallen down |
| And moved to Arizona |
| Now I know why |
| And I’ll substantiate the rumor |
| That the English sense of humor |
| Is drier than the Texas sand |
| You can put up your dukes or you can bet your boots |
| But I’m leavin' just as fast as I can |
| I want to go home with the armadillo |
| Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene |
| The friendliest people and the prettiest women |
| You’ve ever seen |
| Well it’s cold over here Lord I swear |
| I wish they’d turn the heat on |
| And where in the world is that English girl |
| I promised I would meet on the third floor |
| And of the whole damn lot the only friend I got |
| Is a smoke and a cheap guitar |
| My mind keeps rollin' and my heart keeps longing |
| To be home in Texas bar |
| I want to go home with the armadillo |
| Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene |
| The friendliest people and the prettiest women |
| You’ve ever seen |
| Well I decided that I’d get my cowboy hat |
| And go down to Marble Arch Station |
| Cause when a Texas fancies he’ll take his chances |
| You know chances will be taken that’s for sure |
| And them Limey eyes they were eyin' the prize |
| Some people call manly footwear |
| And they said you’re from down south |
| And when you open your mouth |
| You always seem to put yout foot there |
| I want to go home with the armadillo |
| Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene |
| The friendliest people and the prettiest women |
| You’ve ever seen |
| I want to go home with the armadillo |
| Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene |
| The friendliest people and the prettiest women |
| You’ve ever seen |
