Johnathan East - Border Town lyrics

Your rating:

Sun's going down on the border tonight

She's got that red dress on

It's been a while now since I've held her tight

And I still can't believe she's gone.



Well, I worked them oil rigs for three years straight

And I reckon I made pretty fair pay

She poured drinks at a roadhouse bar

And she never had a lot to say

So late one evening after she got off

We took a ride to the edge of town

On the hood of my car ?neath the desert sky

Yeah, we laid a little lovin' down

Yeah, we laid a little lovin' down.



(Chorus)

Oh girl, you're one of a kind

Stole my heart on that Texas line

Never had nothing, spin my head around

Like the love I had, in a border town.



Well her smile was brighter than the desert stars

And her legs, they were golden tan

Those big brown eyes seemed to make me feel

Like she never would have hurt a man


And every evening, she'd swear to me that someday we 

would both ride out

And I hung on tight to every word she said

Guess I never had a reason to doubt

No, I never had a reason to doubt.



(Repeat Chorus)



Got off one night and I stopped by

And they said she had ran away

With some young man from New Mexico

Who had just got to town that day



Now every evening, I sit right here

And I drink my tequila down.



Hoping someday, she'll think about me

And come back to this old border town

Yeah, get back to this old border town.



(Repeat Chorus)



Sun's going down on the border tonight

She's got that red dress on

It's been a while now since I've held her tight

And I still can't believe she's gone.



Oh girl.



Oh, in a border town.
