Jerry Jeff Walker - Viva Luckenbach

Tekst :

There s a place I know where we all go,
A little way down the road,
It ain t far from here, we like to sit and drink beer,
Play dominoes and tell jokes.
We ve been stopping by since 49,
Ain t nothing fancy, just kids and ranches and
Clean white shirts and jeans!

Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,
Everybody s somebody in an old hill country town!
Dirt daubers humming, see the stickle burrs on your sock,
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Luckenbach!

Well, let me tell you now all about the town. . .
How it came to be. . .
In the 1800 s they came in buggies
To meet and trade and buy feed.
They built the blacksmith s shop, then later on
They added the cotton gin. . .
But the old dance hall and general store s
Where it all begins and ends!

Lots of smiling faces, little children running around
Everybody s somebody in an old hill country town
Dirt daubers humming, see the stickle burrs on your sock
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Luckenbach!

Yehaw!

In the 50 s people moved to cities,
Leaving it all behind
Luckenbach closed down for good,
It just fell on a harder time
One day Hondo, driving by,
Wished he had a beer
So he bought the place and he opened it up
That s reason we re all here

Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,
Everybody s somebody in an old hill country town!
Dirt daubers humming, see the stickle burrs on your sock,
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Luckenbach!

Here we go!

Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,
Everybody s somebody in an old hill country town!
Dirt daubers humming, see the stickle burrs on your sock,
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Luckenbach!

In beautiful Luckenbach!

    Its got nothing to do with you
    I know when the wrong thing is right to do
    I aint no bastard son of a bitch
    Not a control freak, just got that itch
    If i could just be where I see me
    How hard is...

    Gone away

    Its on my mind to sit around and think about it
    you know i like you so i m gonna sing about it
    i put my love inside you and you dream about it
    and now i need your loving dont wanna be without it
    day and night sittin by...

    Wino

    Wino on the street. Drinkin a bottle of booze
    Ain t got nothing to say, yeah. And he don t got much to lose
    Times are on his face. Blisters on his brain
    Wonders who s at fault. Knows that he s to blame

    Your late

    Oh my God, what time is it?
    I m late again, this sucks
    Where s my other shoe? FUCK!
    I need a drink-god damn!

    Did I get gas last night?
    Oh, well, roll the dice
    Ha-ha, I gotta to to Vegas soon
    I really miss those wonderful casinos
    And friendly people

    Fuck, I hate those people
    In the carpool lane
    We...

    Are you ready

    We talk about it, Now be about it,
    It s not so hard to scream and shout it,
    Everybody s so down when it s safe and sound,
    You wanna prove something, well do it now,
    Are you ready to die for us, are you willing to lose your freedom?
    Are you ready, are you...
