Texas Blues

歌詞

I'm going out in West Texas, where I can hear the wild ox moan I'm going out in West Texas, where I can hear the wild ox moan Says, it moaned so bad 'til it made me leave my home Lord, pretty mama, what's the matter now? Lord, pretty mama, what's the matter now? You know if you didn't want me, why'd you leave me back in town? I'm going way out in West Texas, just to learn the cowboy style Learn the cowboy style Then I'm comin' back to Dallas, gonna run these women wild You can read your schoolbook, hymnbook on down You can read your schoolbook, hymnbook on down You can read my letter but you sure can't read my mind You can't never tell when your woman's gonna put you down Well, you can't never tell when your woman's gonna put you down Got a smile on her face and a heart that's full of frown Take me, pretty mama, try me one more time Oh Lord, and try me one more time If I don't treat you better, I'll break my neck a-tryin' Said, I lay down last night, my mind was ramblin' 'round I lay down last night, my mind was ramblin' 'round Thinkin' about my lover, she had done put me down
