If you ever go to Houston better walk right
|
Keep your hands in your pockets and your gun-belts tied
|
If you're asking for drama, if you're looking for a fight
|
If you ever go to Houston, boy you better walk right
|
|
If you're ever down there on Bagby and Lamar
|
You better watch out for the man with the shining star
|
Better know where you're going or stay where you are
|
If you're ever down there on Bagby and Lamar
|
|
Well I know these streets I've been here before
|
I nearly got killed here during the Mexican War
|
Something always keeps me coming back for more
|
I know these streets I've been here before
|
|
If you ever go to Dallas, say hello to Mary-Ann
|
Say I'm still looking along the trigger, hanging on the best I can
|
If you see her sister Lucy, say I'm sorry I'm not there
|
Tell her other sister Nancy to pray the sinner's prayer
|
|
I gotta rest this fever bury it in my brain
|
Better keep right forward, can't spoil the game
|
The same way I'll leave here will be the way that I came
|
Gotta rest this fever bury it in my brain
|
|
Mr. policeman, can you help me find my gal
|
Last time I saw her was at the Magnolia Motel
|
If you help me find her, you can be my pal
|
Mr. policeman, can you help me find my gal
|
|
If you ever go to Austin, Fort Worth or San Anton'
|
Find the barrooms I got lost in and send my memories home
|
Put my tears in a bottle screw the top on tight
|
If you ever go to Houston, buddy you'd better walk right
|
