I got drunk in Austin Texas I missed my plane in North Carolina
|
Spent all of my money on a long distance call
|
Huntsville Prison walls so high I'm so lonesome I could die
|
You could make a grown man cry if you wanted to
|
Say goodbye to Houston for me give my best to San Antone
|
Tell Dallas there's a change in plans I won't be comin' home
|
|
Dallas lives in Winston Salem we got married in West Virginia
|
Then we moved to Texas on a fifty acre farm
|
I robbed a bank and shot a man ended up in Birmingham
|
But I guess I tipped my hand and wound up in the pen
|
Say goodbye to Houston for me...
|
|
Houston is my oldest daughter says she's leaving for New York City
|
She's gonna make her living reaching for a star
|
San Antone's my only son please don't tell him what I've done
|
Or that I had to use my gun for that I killed a man
|
Say goodbye to Houston for me...
|
Say goodbye to Houston for me...
|
Say goodbye to Houston for me...
|
