george strait - lone star blues lyrics
at a truck stop in st. angelo
saw a billboard about this rodeo
this weekend out in el paso
so i signed up to ride
i drew a bull called original sin
heard he’d killed a couple of men
figured this was something i could win
’cause the devil was on my side
i was having myself one h-ll of a ride
but i ended up disqualified
that old bull just up and died
before they blew the whistle
with them north texas blues
thought i’d paid all my dues
then them south texas blues
told me, son, you ain’t through
had the east texas blues
and the west texas too
i’ve done all i know to do trying to lose
trying to lose these old lone star blues
well, i got laid off at brown and root
then on my way back to cut and shoot
i lost my wristw-tch and my boots
shooting dice with a dude from houston
there ain’t no jobs here working cattle
so i got on part-time hauling gravel
with some outfit from seattle
down here building custom homes
with them north texas blues
thought i’d paid all my dues
then them south texas blues
told me, son, you ain’t through
had the east texas blues
and the west texas too
i’ve done all i know to do trying to lose
trying to lose these old lone star blues
well, i g-ssed my truck and i packed my clothes
turned in my key and i hit the road
i said cow town’s where i’ll go
you never know, i might get lucky
well, i got a friend there turning kn-bs
at a place called billy bob’s
said he thought he could get me a job there
working as a bouncer
first night on the job was just insane
some old boy got all deranged
hit me in the head with a harley chain
to this day, my ears still ring
with them north texas blues
thought i’d paid all my dues
then them south texas blues
told me, son, you ain’t through
had the east texas blues
and the west texas too
i’ve done all i know to do trying to lose
trying to lose these old lone star blues
i’ve done all i know to do trying to lose
trying to lose these old lone star blues
