West Texas Highway Sözleri

Now I was driving down

A West Texas highway

I saw a hitchhiker

And his thumb was pointing my way

He didn't look suspicious

And he didn't look any too clean

I put on my brakes

And I opened my door

I could tell he was a bum

By the muddy boot he wore

He said I'm going down to Haskell

Got a woman down in Abilene

He said East Texas

Is where I come from

I was working a rodeo out there

And it sure got humdrum

So I'm just traveling around

A whole lot of Texas I've seen

I'm mighty glad

You were going my way

In your brand new clothes there

And your great big Chevrolet

I'm going down to Haskell

Got a woman down in Abilene

Well he was grinning like a possum

And a mighty happy rascal

And he waved good-bye

When I let him out in Haskell

And that's about the last

Of that old road tramp

I ever did see

But I'm still wishing

To this very day

That he had my clothes

And my big Chevrolet

And it was me going to Haskell

With a woman down in Abilene
