At a truck stop in San Angelo, I saw a billboard about this rodeo
A D
This weekend out in El Paso, so I signed up to ride
G
I drew a bull called Original Sin, heard he'd killed a couple of men
A D
Figured this was somethin' I could win, 'cause the devil was on my side
D G
I was havin' myself one hell of a ride, but I ended up disqualified
A D
That old bull just up an died, before they blew the whistle
D G
With them North Texas blues, thought I'd paid all my dues
A D
Then them South Texas blues, told me son you ain't through
D G
Had the East Texas blues, an' the West Texas too
A
I've done all I know to do, tryin? to lose,
D A D
Tryin? to lose these old Lone Star Blues
verse 2
D G
Well, I got laid off at Brown and Root, then on my way back to Cut 'N Shoot
A D
I lost my wristwatch an' my boots, shootin' dice with a dude from Houston
D G
Well, there ain't no jobs here workin' cattle, I got on part-time hauling gravel
A D
With some outfit from Seattle, down here building custom homes
D G
With them North Texas blues, thought I'd paid all my dues

Then them South Texas blues, told me son you ain't through

verse 3
D
Well I gassed my truck an' I packed my clothes,
G
Turned in my key and I hit the road
A D
I said Cow Town's where I'll go, you never know, I might get lucky
D G
Well I got a friend there turnin' knobs, at a place called Billy Bob's
A D
Said he thought he could get me a job there working as a bouncer
D G
First night on the job was just insane, some old boy got all deranged
A D
Hit me in the head with a Harley chain, to this day, my ears still ring
D G
With them North Texas blues, thought I'd paid all my dues
