Texas Lullaby Lyrics - Stampede - The Doobie Brothers

Tom Johnston 

 

Sittin' by myself in the summertime, when the heat is burnin' down 

Watchin' the golden crops in the field just growin' without a sound 

I was a boy raised in the country and it's still a part of me 

And you see no matter where I go it's a beautiful memory 

Rise with sun at the break of day, lookin' out my window 

It's the same as yesterday 

 

Sittin' under an old oak tree, pickin' my guitar in the shade 

That old tree spreadin' over my head is the closest friend I made

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

Just me and some lonely wooden music, floatin' through air 

The grass is rustlin' and the birds are singin' and my heart don't have a care 

Still another day finds me in the fields, sweat is soakin' up my ragged clothes 

But I'd rather work than steal 

 

Watchin' the sun settle down over open Texas land, looking at the cattle and the horses runnin' wild as they can 

Life was different in the old days, you just get a day's work done 

When you were finished workin' in the fields, there was chores at home to be done 

 

I was always hearin' music, always wanna play me some 

As a full-time friend or the way to ease the end of a woman that swayed me some 

Hearin' those tunes always had a way of soothin' out my soul 

When times got hard and work got slow it was music that kept me whole 

Sun beatin' down through the trees, gets so hot bring a workin' man to his knees 

Part of my heart, part of my soul, part of a melody 

Hands are clappin' and people swayin' in simple harmony 

Life was different in the old days, you just get a day's work done 

When you finished workin' in the fields there was chores at home to be done

Late in the evenin' on the front porch when the sun is settin' in the west 

Me and the boys pass around the bottle and sing what we like best 

Sing about our wives, sing about our children, singin' out the Delta blues 

We're simple folks and we like it that way, got nothin' left to lose
