Intro
E E G A repeated untill lyrics come in.
Headin' for the Texas border,
'Cause i'm tryin' to avoid the law
Headin' for the Texas border,
'Cause i'm tryin' to avoid the law
Well, when I pull right into Houston,
n/
Gonna see my Ma and Pa
And i'll tell those fancy stories,
'Bout the cities I have seen
And i'll tell those fancy stories,
'Bout the cities I have seen
Well, all away from New York cityyyy
n/
Down to, I said a, New Orleans
Well, I won't tell 'bout the heart-ache,
Well, I won't tell 'bout the pain,
Well, I won't tell 'bout the times I had to sleep out in the rain.
Well, i'm going to El Paso,
To get my mojo fixed,
Then i'll pack my bags and head out for the,
n/
North West.
Solo played over the following chords
n/
I said to the girls of Texas,
I do all the travelling, man.
I said a to the girls of Texas,
I do all the travelling, man.
And, i'll come, i'll pinch your money,
n/
Till I pass your way again.
Well I, don't know where i'm going,
And I know I just don't care,
But I've got to keep on ramblin', 'fore I find my self somewhere
Where i'm sure i've got my number,
And folks, they know my kind,
But, i'll Blow your mind, blow your mind.
Unwind!
