Ship My Body Back to Texas歌词

作词 : Black, Bruce
Lookin' for some greener grass, I left my lone star home
Put my trust in wanderlust, struck out for parts unknown
I tried California where it's sunny all the time
They dug up all the gold in '49
Ship my body back to Texas if I die out on the trail
I'm not worry where they bury me, just put me in the mail
Lay me down in cowtown where I'll never be alone
Or pushing up the rose of San Antone
I headed for Alaska, where I thought I'd change my luck
But the nights are long and cold and lunch can cost a forty bucks
They're shuttin' down the motor town, the lights at night aren't pretty
And you can't walk the streets of New York City
Ship my body back to Texas if I die out on the trail
I'm not worry where they bury me, just put me in the mail
Lay me down in cowtown where I'll never be alone
Or pushing up the rose of San Antone
I spent my last ten dollars drinkin' rum down in the Keyes
Shipped aboard a freighter and I've seen more than seven seas
'Cause one square mile of ocean looks just like the one next to it
If I could find my way back home, I'd do it
Ship my body back to Texas if I die out on the trail
I'm not worry where they bury me, just put me in the mail
Lay me down in cowtown where I'll never be alone
Or pushing up the rose of San Antone
Plant me in the parking lot outside the Astrodome
Or pushin' up the rose of San Antone
Pushin' up the rose of San Antone编辑于2023/05/12更新
