ED BURLESON
TEXAS ROAD TRIP
CAPO: II
[D]WE LEFT ENSENIENAS IT WAS ALMOST DARK
[G]WANDER CROSS THE DESERT AT [D]NIGHT
GOIN'' HOME TO TEXAS GOT A LOT OF MILES AHEAD
THERE''S A[E] LIQUOR STORE[E7] OPEN ON THE[A] RIGHT
WELL LET''S[D] JUMP OUT AND GET US A CASE OF COLD BEER
DON''T[G] WANNA GET THIRSTY ON THE[D] ROAD
SOM[G]EBODY HAND ME THAT [D]GEORGE JONES TAPE
AND [A]WE''LL GET READY TO[D] ROLL
HEADIN'' OUT ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
LEAVIN'' THE WEST COAST BEHIND
I GOTTA GET BACK TO HEAR SOME COUNTRY MUSIC
AND I''M TALKIN'' BOUT THE TEXAS KIND
ERNEST TUBB, WILLIE NELSON, LEFTY FRIZZELL
AND OLD BOB WILLS IS STILL THE KING
WELL THEY CAN BLOW MORE SOUL WITH THEM PUT TOGETHER
THAN THE WHOLE DAMN STATE OF TENNESSEE
CHORUS:
AND AS [G]SOON AS I CROSS THE TEXAS STATE LINE
I [D]TELL YOU WHAT IM GONNA DO
I''M GONNA[G] HANG MY HEAD OUT THE WINDOW
AND GIVE [D]YO-DI-[A]LE-DI-HOO
THEN I''LL[D] STOP AT THE NEXT GROCERY STORE
OR ANY LITTLE HONKYTONK BAR
FOR SOME [D]LONESTAR BEER AND SOME [G]WOLF BRAND CHILI
AND A [A]BIG OLD LEBEAR [D]CIGAR
SOLO
WELL IT WAS STILL PITCH BLACK WHEN WE MADE ARIZONA
AND ALREADY IT''S A HUNDRED AND TWO
WE''RE LISTENIN'' TO AN ALL NIGHT TRUCKER STATION
WON''T SOMEBODY HAND ME A BREW
BUT LORD I THINK WE MUST BE GETTIN CLOSER
I CAN SMELL THAT WEST TEXAS WIND
WHEN I GET BACK TO MY HOME SWEET HOME
LORD I''M NEVER GONNA LEAVE AGAIN
WELL THE SUN WAS HIGH IN MIDWEST? SKY
WHEN WE CROSSED INTO NEW MEXICO
AND ITS HARD TO BELIEVE WERE ONLY HALF WAY TO AUSTIN
WHEN WE GET TO EL PASO
BUT I AIN''T GONNA MIND THE LAST PART OF THE JOURNEY
TRAVELLIN'' THROUGH THE STATE I LOVE
WITH THE TEXAS COUNTRY SIGHTS STRETCHIN'' OUT BEFORE US
AND THE BLUE TEXAS SKIES ABOVE
REPEAT CHORUS
FOR SOME LONESTAR BEER AND SOME WOLF BRAND CHILI
AND A BIG OLD LEBEAR CIGAR
