Lyrics
Gary p nunn
1St verse Well, when you're down on your luck And you ain't got a buck In london you're a goner Even london bridge has fallen down And moved to arizona Now I know why And I'll substantiate the rumor that the english sense of humor Is drier than than the texas sand You can put up your dukes, and you can bet your boots That I'm leavin' just as fast as I can
Chorus I wanna go home with the arma [am] dillo Good country music from ama rillo and abi lene The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever [g] Seen
2Nd verse Well, it's cold over here, and I swear I wish they'd turn the heat on And where in the world is that english girl I promised I would meet on the third floor And of the whole damn lot, the only friend I've got Is a smoke and a cheap guitar My mind keeps roamin', my heart keeps longin' To be home in a texas bar
Chorus
3Rd verse Well, I decided that I'd get my cowboy hat And go down to marble arch station 'Cause when a texan fancies, he'll take his chances Chances will be taken, that's for sure And them limey eyes, they were eyein' the prize That some people call manly footwear And they said you're from down south And when you open your mouth You always seem to put your foot there
Repeat chorus 'til the cows come home
