Lyrics

(Bobby gene emmons, chips moman)

The only two things in life that make it worth living
Is guitars tuned good and firm-feeling women
Well, I don't need my name in the marquee lights
I got my song and I got you with me tonight
Let's go to luckenbach, texas
With waylon and willie and the boys
This successful life we're living's
Got us feuding like the hatfields and mccoys
Between hank williams pain songs
Steve goodman train songs
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Out in luckenbach, texas
Ain't nobody feeling no pain

So baby let's sell your diamond ring
To buy some boots and faded jeans and go away
This coat and tie is choking me
In your high society you cry all day
We've been so busy keeping up with the jones
Four-car garage and we're still building on

Let's go to luckenbach, texas
Waylon and willie and the boys
This successful life we're living's
Got us feuding like the hatfields and mccoys
Between hank williams pain songs
Steve goodman train songs
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Luckenbach, texas
Ain't nobody feeling no pain
