Time For Texas
(written by: Wayne Mills)
A D E A
I like songs about Texas towns like Luchenbach and Abilene
A D E
Willie and Strait know them well but those are places I’ve never seen
D A D
I’ve got kinfolk in Dallas I’d visit when I was young
B7 E A
Now I wanna go back and have myself some grown-up Texas fun
A D E A
Robert Earl Keen sings really cool I think he’d look out for me
A D E
Show me the front porch at college station where Lyle Lovett used to sing
D A D
I wanna shake hands with ole Bojangles I’m talkin’ bout Jerry Jeff
B7 E A
Hell, I think I’ll head out there and introduce myself
(Chorus)
D A
I’m Wayne Mills from Alabama I aint never had too much fun
E A
I like drinkin’ beer with my fishin’ pole, I like to shoot off my guns
D A D
I play bad golf when the sun comes up I play music when it goes back down
B7 E A
I sure hope you’ll welcome me to your town
(Solo)
A D E A
Don’t get me wrong I love the Flora-Bama, Jay Hawkins really smokes
D E
I love late nights at Ole Mississippi and folks up in Muscle Shoals
D A D
I laid it down in Birmingham, picked it up in Tennessee
B7 E A
Macon, Georgia sure been good to me, now it’s time for Texas
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Chorus)
D A D
Somebody tell those Texas boys, don’t forget Pat Green
B7 E A
I’m on my way, if you don’t mind, save a bar stool for me
