Picked up on my phone in Houston
|
Everybody answered, everybody answered but they won't say why
|
Then this dancer grabbed me down by the bus stop
|
And she said I'm takin' you with me to the Texas Rose cafe
|
I got a fast car, it's a jaguar, and I'll get you to the plane on time
|
Drinkin' Lone Star, play guitar, we'll have a real good time
|
I said love to be found in Austin,
|
Love to be found in Austin town,
|
I replied that I would try, but you see my time is not my own
|
'Cause when I was just a big time low ball fool
|
My friend Leroy came to me
|
He said look out your window
|
Does the first man you see look like me?
|
I'm sooooore displeased
|
|
Since that time I changed my mind
|
About the things I'm up to
|
Yet the things around me stay just the same
|
'Cause outside my hotel window is a sign that turns from red to green
|
It says chop suey and join the U.S. Marines
|
