Jerry Jeff Walker/John Inmon. . Last year we went to London and Paris, Texas. We went on a bus tour, the great Texas honky tonk tour. Here are some snapshots about life on the road......
Jerry Jeff Walker. . We held a funeral and a wake at the Diamondback Saloon. With every old-time cowboy agathered in one room. Swappin' tales and tellin' lies from days when they were young.
Last night I sat out on the boat dock and smoked a big cigar. . Let my mind drift back along the road of life. I've traveled down so far. Started out a dreamer with a suitcase in hand.
Billy C.. . Well, my woman left me yesterday,. Sure do need this drink. My mind's so damned turned around,. That I can hardly think. I'd like some peace and quiet,.

Love, love in the afternoon. Outside the window an organ grinder's tune. . Rhythm, wine; touch of Jamaica, twilight time with a Kingston lady. All the time in the world for me and that girl.
When the road gets too long. And you run all out of song. And the pain gets too much. For you to bear. . Turn around, turn around. Turn around, and I'll be there.
Well up in the evening down in Mobile, Alabama. Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer. Gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes.
