Emmylou Harris - West Texas Waltz songtekst
Je score:
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
