Emmylou Harris - West Texas Waltz lyrics

Your rating:

When you're ready or steady, to go dancin', romancin' 
Grab your sweetheart and jump in your car 
Drive right on down, to the bright side of town 
You'll be glad you don't have to drive far 
You'll be happy you don't have to go far 
Park your pick-ups and Cadillacs, Fords and Renaults 
Get out and dance like the dickens to the West Texas 
Waltz 
Grand mammy, grand pappy, if you wanna stay happy 
Better lace up your best dancin' shoes 
Come see us, don't write us, you can stop your 
arthritis 
Just by dancin' away your blues 
Now just by dancin' away your blues 
So bind up your bunions with band-aids and gauze 
And come dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz 
I met a fine banker and I'd sure like to thank him 
For the credit he gave me made me shout 
He changed my whole attitude and to show him a my 
gratitude 
I decided I'd just ask him out 
Yes, I thought I just might ask him out 
I said close up your windows and lock up your vaults 
And lets go dance like the dickens to the West Texas 
Waltz 
We spent the next to last dollar at the old ice cream 
parlor 
On a milkshake and a malt and a pop 
And then we heard us some sounds was a honky tonk 
lounge 
Next door to the ice cream shop 
Next door to the ice cream shop 
Now only two things are better than milkshakes and 
malts 
One is dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz 
And the other is somethin' but really it's nothin' 
To speak of, it's somethin' to do and if you've done it 
before 
You'll be doin' it some more 
Just as soon as the dancin' is through 
Right after the dancin' is through 
And if anybody asks you why, just tell 'em because 
You been dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas 
Waltz
