Lyrics for West Texas Highway by LYLE LOVETT:
| | | Artist: | LYLE LOVETT |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | West Texas Highway | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 89 | | | | Lyrics: | (Michael Martin Murphey and Boomer Castleman)
Now I was driving down
A West Texas
highway
I saw a hitchhiker
And his thumb was pointing my way
He didn't look
suspicious
And he didn't look any too clean
I put on my brakes
And I opened my
door
I could tell he was a bum
By the muddy boot he wore
He said I'm going down to
Haskell
Got a woman down in Abilene
He said East Texas
Is where I come from
I
was working a rodeo out there
And it sure got humdrum
So I'm just traveling around
A
whole lot of Texas I've seen
I'm mighty glad
You were going my way
In your brand
new clothes there
And your great big Chevrolet
I'm going down to Haskell
Got a woman
down in Abilene
Well he was grinning like a possum
And a mighty happy rascal
And he
waved good-bye
When I let him out in Haskell
And that's about the last
Of that old road
tramp
I ever did see
But I'm still wishing
To this very day
That he had my
clothes
And my big Chevrolet
And it was me going to Haskell
With a woman down in Abilene | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
