He's been workin' for two years down the street at HEB
Just so he can pay his rent and take classes at ACC
Now he ain't old but he's done more livin' than his twenty years might suggest
He's done some drinkin' in his lifetime but he ain't even legal yet
And it's a long way to Mexico
And there ain't nothing to do around here
I guess close don't count for nothin'
But no one around here seems to care
He's friends with the sheriff's daughter, you know ol' sheriff thinks he's alright
