You need a job so you can make some money. You need a nice warm place to stay. A sense of humor cause life is funny. A big stick to keep the wolves away.
Now look here, honey, I got all this money. So let's me and you go down to Mexico. We'll find us a haystack, a little place we can lay back. A bottle of Red Wine, a whole lot of sunshine.
Standing on the bank of a river. By the shore. Seems like the devil's always tryin'. To get in my door. Just when I thought I. Couldn't take it anymore.
When the words came tumbling out of my mouth. I felt it all goin' south. But I kept on talkin', 'til you started walking. Now I'm trying to dig my way out.
Two in the mornin' too hot to sleep. Tossin and turnin' and twistin' the sheets. I feel an old weakness comin on strong. Window wide open in the back bedroom.
My girlfriend was a babysittin' down the street. And so I bought some soda pop and sandwich meat. She laid it on the table and I took a seat. But I never got a chance to drink or eat.
Well, for one thing, there was a whole lot of guys. Who would've liked to have been in my shoes. But the upkeep on a woman like that. Will give an old poor boy the blues.
Been down in the dumps for a day or two. Thinkin' baby, it was time for me to make a move. Late night skyline that's when it hit me. Well, I got to have me some of that New York City.
At a truck stop in San Angelo. I saw a billboard 'bout this rodeo. Last weekend out in El Paso. So I signed up to ride. . I drew a bull called Original Sin.
Midnight, I stare at the ceiling.. For a long time. I can't get comfortable, girl.. Moonlight, like a spotlight,. Shining down on this. tangled mess I'm in, girl..
Here you come draggin' in. Three a.m. again. Grinnin' that silly grin. Smellin' just like sin. . Holdin' up that alibi that's tissue paper thin. Diggin' down deeper and deeper.
My ship came in and she sunk it. I was the toast of the town and she drunk it. I had a run of good luck and she ran it right into the ground. And now she's puttin' on a show and I get to play the clown.
Well, He knew what He was doin'. When He put eyes into my head. If He didn't want me to lookin' at all them pretty little women. He'd left my old eyeballs dead.
After my baby quit me. I wouldn't even go outside. And when my friends tried to fix me up. I'd crawl up underneath the bed and hide. . I knew I was never gonna change my luck.
Saw you, that was all I had to see. Wanted you, had to have you next to me. From that moment, I knew that you'd be all that I'd ever need. And there's a place inside my heart, nobody's touched before.
She told me. One time not long ago. She said to get out and stay out. And please don't ever speak to me no more. . Now I've been waitin'. Like a blind man in the street.
Here comes the weekend, honey.. What's going on?. Do we put our feet up, honey,. Or call it all night long?. Oh, baby, whatever... I'm With You. Are we staying home, are we going downtown?.
Thanks but no thanks, baby. I've already got more trouble than I need. Thanks but no thanks, baby. I've already got more trouble than I need. I don't want no lonely lustful woman's.
Well, I love this life but it's doing me in. Just in case I don't ever see you again. I had a real good time, I love the wine. The women and song and the carryin' on.
