[Verse]
Em A D
It's 50 miles from Leakey down to Hondo
Em A D
(There's)No straight shot the roads all twist and curve
Em A D
Another 45 on in to San Antone
Em A D
Seems a long way to go for just one girl
Em A
He pulls up Monday morning
D
Puts his window down
Em A D
Grins and tells me to breathe in deep
Em A D
Her perfume still lingers from their last date
Em
Says he's late for work
A D
Leaves me standing in the street
Em A
He's taken to wearing starched shirts
D
And his boots stay shined
Em A D
Keeps that old truck neat as a pin
Em A D
Her picture gazes down from his visor
Em A D
At an empty dash where a spit cup should've been
[Chorus]
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll ya say to a twelve pack
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to settin' some lines
G A
Hey runnin' buddy, don't you remember
D Bm
The good times we had
G A D
'fore you hooked up with that San Antonio girl
[Verse]
Em A D
I've known Jimmy Wayne since the second grade
Em A D
His mom and him moved in from Copperas Cove
Em A D
We've always chased the girls down in Uvalde
Em A D
Don't see why he needs him one in San Antone
Em A D
First date, they went dancing at a VFW
Em A D
A rough spot for such a cultured pearl
Em A D
Matched him beer for beer, and she could polka
Em A D
So he fell in love with that San Antonio girl
[Chorus]
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll you say to a twelve pack
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to runnin' some lines
G A
Hey runnin' buddy, don't you remember
D Bm
The good times we had
G A D
'fore you hooked up with that San Antonio girl
[Solo]
Em A D Em A D G A Bm A G A Em A D
[Verse]
Em A D
Well we never just go drink beer like we used to
Em A D
Road hunt, shoot signs, or shoot the breeze
Em A D
Every weekend he loads up and goes to see her
Em A D
I guess that old gal's just way more fun than me
Em A D
It's a long haul from Leakey to San Antonio
Em A D
No straight shot, the roads all twist and bend
Em A D
Maybe come next Friday, I'll ride with him
Em A D
See if she has got some San Antonio friends
[Chorus]
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll you say to a twelve pack
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to runnin' some lines
(on the gals from San Antone)
G A D Bm
Hey runnin' buddy, wait'll you see the good times we'll have
G A D
When we both hook up with San Antonio girls
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll you say to a twelve pack
G A D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to runnin' some lines
(on the gals from San Antone)
G A D Bm
Hey runnin' buddy, wait'll you see the good times we'll have
G A D
When we both hook up with them San Antonio girls D D D
