I learned to swim when daddy threw me in the river
The army taught me how to shine my shoes The years have shown me that nothin' lasts forever But everything I know about the blues I learned from you I thought I'd seen my share of bad luck and hard times But nothin' set me up for what you put me through I learned a lesson that will hurt me for a lifetime 'Cause everything I know about the blues I learned from you I know that promises are things that just get broken And you can't trust a woman's tears And if love is what you place your hope in All your hope may disappear In certain circles I've acquired a reputation But I give credit where credit is due Yes it's true I've got a first rate education 'Cause everything I know about the blues Everything I know about the blues Everything I know about the blues I learned from you |

At a truck stop in San Angelo
I saw a billboard 'bout this rodeo Last 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 somethin' I could win 'Cause the devil's on my side I was havin' myself one hell of a ride When I, I ended up disqualified 'Cause that danged old bull just up and died Before they blew the whistle When I got them North Texas blues Thought, I'd paid all my dues Then them South Texas blues Told me, son you ain't through Had them East Texas blues And them West Texas too I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues I got laid off at Brown and Root On my way back to Cut and Shoot I lost my wristwatch and my boots Shootin' dice with a dude from Houston There ain't no jobs here workin' cattle So I got on part time haulin' gravel With some outfit from Seattle Down here buildin' custom homes When I got them North Texas blues Thought, I'd paid all my dues And then them South Texas blues Told me son you ain't through Had them East Texas blues And them West Texas too I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues, alright I gassed up my truck and packed my clothes Turned in my key and hit the road I said, Cowtown's where I'll go You never know I might get lucky I got a friend there turning knobs At this place called Billy Bob's Said he could get me a job There workin' as a bouncer First night on the job was just insane Some ol' boy got all deranged Hit me in the head with a Harley chain To this day my ears still ring I got them North Texas blues Thought, I'd paid all my dues And them South Texas blues Told me son you ain't through Had them East Texas blues And them West Texas too I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues I've done all I know to do Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose these lone star blues |

I know how much you hate to get up in the mornin'
But somebody's gotta make a move. There's a parking lot full of Po-lice outside And they all 'axed' of you. He said "I might mislead you but I would n't ever lie to ya." And I said "Well hell, that's the way it ought to be." And he said "I never shot him. He shot himself, While he was shootin' at me." Hey there's a pitchfork sticking through the roof of the car And both the headlights are busted out." These people say they saw you runnin' away." He said, "Hell, I was just going for help." I hope somebody's writin' this down. Let's get our story straight, boys, 'fore we get back to town. My guess is, he just went insane, tried to swim away with too much change. The Doctor said I can fix that for ya but it's gonna be awhile. Just go on an' take a seat. Try not to bleed on the carpet and pull the door shut when you leave. A singer/songwriter/massage therapist friend of mine said y'all might be needin' a little help. Now I'll drive your truck but I don't lift nothin' and I room all by myself! I hope somebody's writin' this down. Let's get our story straight, boys, 'fore we get back to town. Now all y'all witnessed what I said he done. I hope he makes bail. I love it when they run. |

Who's gonna butter your bread for you? Who's gonna fix your tea?
Who's gonna chase away your blues? For who's gonna let you break their hearts just anytime you please? Who's gonna pay the price of loving you? I don't know who it will be But I can tell you who it won't be Who's gonna light your Christmas up? Who's gonna rake your leaves? Who's gonna keep you out of trouble? Do you really think he's man enough down there on his knees? Don't you hope that he don't bust your bubble I don't know who it will be But I can tell you who it won't be I've been here for a long time Till I found out it's the wrong kind of love Because you're never satisfied, I stay all broke up inside It matters not how hard I try, I can't do enough So, who's gonna heat your January, keep your summer cool? Who's gonna bring you all the things you need? For who's gonna be the next in line, in your chain of fools? Better hope that he don't need much room to breath I don't know who it will be But I can tell you who it won't be I've been here for a long time Till I found out it's the wrong kind of love Because you're never satisfied, I stay all broke up inside It matters not how hard I try, I can't do enough So, who's gonna butter your bread for you? Who's gonna fix your tea? Or who's gonna chase away your blues? Or who's gonna let you break their hearts just anytime you please? Or who's gonna pay the price of loving you? I don't know who it will be But I can tell you who it won't be |
