The Day I Went Down to Texas |
If you should change your mind |
Please leave the key beneath the mat |
And as for me I’m stepping |
Out with these walls to a land that enthralls |
A land where a man can realize his dreams |
I took my place in a fast moving queue |
Walked up the gangplank and winked at the crew |
And now I’m bound for pastures new |
Texas, down in Texas |
Now I’m reelin' in the drunken sun |
I jumped on the back of a Cadillac |
I said I guess I’m a lucky son of a gun |
You write occasionally |
In such a perfunctory style |
Despite myself I always |
Smile while remembering our glorious past |
I guess we both knew it was too good to last |
I once wrote a song though the words didn’t scan |
You still insisted that you were a fan |
But you were so much younger then |
Texas, down in Texas |
Now I’m reelin' in the drunken sun |
I jumped on the back of a Cadillac |
I said I guess I’m a lucky son of a gun |
Texas, down in Texas |
Now I’m reelin' in the drunken sun |
I jumped on the back of a Cadillac |
I said I guess I’m a lucky son of a gun |
