TEXAS MORNING Introduction: Right in the middle of the ten cent scenery Shuffled and stacked on a postcard rack There's a cute little girl with a Shetland pony She smiles at me but I can't smile back Cactus Jack drinks coffee black Tells me it's my lucky day Five o'clock in the Texas Morning And I've come a long, long way Five o'clock in the Texas Morning And I've come a long, long way She left me cold on a winter's morning And cold it's been for a long, long time She told me Texas was where she's going And I came looking but she's so hard to find Cactus Jack drinks coffee black Tells me it's my lucky day Five o'clock in the Texas Morning And I've come a long, long way Five o'clock in the Texas Morning And I've come a long, long way Oh, I don't know just where I'll find her, Maybe the soldier with the suitcase saw her, She just said she was goin' to Texas, for a little while So I'm looking for a girl with light brown hair, And hazel eyes, and she's not too pretty, but a beautiful smile, She just said, 'Well I'm goin' to Texas, for a little while.' Break: / / / Cook in the back is gettin' curious, He asks the waitress where I'm from She just says 'Well, I've never seen him, He's prob'ly just a California bum.' Cactus Jack he says, 'That's right' As I walk out into the light Five o'clock in the Texas Morning And I've got a long, long ride Five o'clock in the Texas Morning And I've got a long, long ride Outside, the sun is up And the wind blows me Like a dixiecup Down the highway...
