Honky tonkin' round Texas

Well I'll put some diesel in the tank
          C
Give that old Detroit a crank
          G                              D

And don't forget to kiss your baby good bye

Stick out a thumb and bum a ride
Hitch-hike across the country side
Come see why they call this place God's country
Well criss-cross in the Colorado
From Amarillo to Zapata
Every town along the way from A to Z

If I miss church this Sunday morning.
