Fifty miles from town and the needles on empty Let her coast to the side of the road There's nothing around just her memory and me And that West Texas sun hanging low Well I grabbed my bag and I kicked the front tire I just threw my damn keys to the floor I ain't showered in weeks or eating in days boys It looks like it may be a few more Well now I'm standing here and it's perfectly clear I can see through her wicked ways And I think of a time back in my prime And I long for them younger days When bad bronc's made good cowboys And rough waters calmed a sea faring man And cheap whiskey, yeah it led to rich memories And no bad woman ever wrecked a good man Well this hole in my boot wore this hole in my sock And that wore this damn hole in my toe She burned a hole in this good old boys heart Now this shit's gone as far as it can go Well now I take a rest on this red rock dirt And the Texas heat's coming strong With sweat on my brow, dust on my lips I'm laying here and wondering how Them bad bronc's ever made good cowboys? And how'd that rough water calm a sea faring man? How'd that cheap whiskey ever lead to rich memories? And how that bad woman ever wrecked this good man? Yeah that devil woman Well she wrecked this good man
