 Let's go, let's go let's go let's go

 Peter you start it

 Somebody start it

 

 I just had to get out on the Texas plane, Lord,
well it was bringing me down

 Yeah, I had to get out of Texas, baby, Lord, it
was bringing me down

 I been all around the world, but Port Arthur is
the worst place that I've ever found

 

 I guess they couldn't understand it there,
honey, they'd laugh me off the street!

 Lord, I guess they couldn't understand me, baby,
honey, they'd laugh, I said they'd laugh me right
off the street, yeah

 I said I want to keep on moving, baby, be the
last person I ever wanna meet

 

 Yeah, yeah, yeah, honey ain't it hard when
you're all alone

 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, honey ain't it
hard, Lord, when you're all alone

 I might die real old lady, but I'd never call
Texas my home, no, no, no, oh!

 

 You say you come from Texas, baby, she says she
left Texas with just her name

 [Spoken:] That's what she told me

 Yes she's from Texas I tell you, she says she
left Texas with just her name

 Yes, well I swear when that girl came to the big
city, Lord, she learned a brand new game

 Well, yeah!

 

 Honey, I hear you talkin' about sorrow, baby but
you don't know my pain, that's right!

 Mercy! Mercy!

 I hear you talking about my sorrow, you don't
know my pain

 You know there's an inside kind of sorrow, Lord,
the women are always singin' the blues

 All right, all right mother fucker, you sing!

 

 You know I, I dealt the Ace to the Queen, you
know I played scrabble with L.B.J.

 Yes, I dealt an Ace to the Queen, didn't I'll
tell ya I's playin' scrabble with L.B.J.

 Well, I don't care what the name of the game is,
baby, I tell you I always seem to get my way

 

 I used to be a doggone fool, fall for a woman's
story every time

 But no more, I swear

 Well, I used to be a, be a doggone fool, fall
for that old woman's story every time

 Yes I, I'm a big boy now, yeah, they gotta come
up with some kind of heavy line

 Well, well, yeah!

 

 Sounds like I found the man, who could take care
of my time

 It ain't me babe, it ain't me babe!

 It appears to me that I found a man, that could
take care of my time

 Well, I got my own trouble, I got my own car, I
got my own little lady, I got my hotel

 Oh what are you talking about!

 Don't try to take it!

 Somebody talks as fine as he does, oughta be
able to take care of

 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,
nine

 

 Woman, woman, it just makes me mad

 Ahh, ahh! Woman, yeah

 Woman, yeah

 Woman, yeah

 Woman, yeah

 Woman, yeah, yeah, it just makes me mad

 Oh man, shit, man...

 Yes, she played me for the fool I tell ya

 Yes and I've got to love every man she's ever
had, yeah

 

 If I found a man who could put me down the way
you do

 I mean so handy-like, you know what I mean?

 Yeah, I found a man, whoa, who could put me down
the way you do

 I mean so easy like it was second nature, y'know
what I mean, man?

 Ah maybe that man could help me, at least, honey
I thought I would give you a chance

 I said I, what I said I could try after the,
after the show tonight maybe uh ...

 

 I'm just a working man, you know

 Ha ha ha ha, you don't work too hard, baby!

 You know I ain't no Hollywood star

 I'm not Joe Namath, you know, I read about that
in the papers today

 You know I'm just a working man, you don't work
too hard, baby!

 I never ran in a football game 200 yards

 Ha ha ha ha ha, that's the kinda man I like,
that's the kinda man I like

 But you know I can take care of those country
girls

 Well I can mess around in that farmyard

 Lord, Lord, whoaah!

 

 Ha ha ha! ha. Whew! Whew! Wow! That's getting a
little too close, too heavy here

 That's Nick Gravenites, that was a tune called
Ego Rock. No! ...

 

 All right, rock, rock & roll song
