At a truck stop in St Angelo

Saw a bill board about this rodeo

This weekend out in El Paso

So I signed up to ride

I drew a bull called original sin

Heard he'd killed a couple of men

Figured this was something I could win

Cause the devil was on my side

I was havin' myself one hell of a ride

But I ended up disqualified

That bull just up and died

Before they blew the whistle

With those north Texas blues

Thought I'd paid all my dues

Then those south Texas blues

Told me son you ain't through

Had the east Texas blues and the west Texas too

I've done all I know to do

Tryin to lose tryin to lose

These ol' Lone Star Blues

Well I got laid off at Brown and Rue

Then on my way back to cuttin' chute

I lost my wrist watch and my boots

Shootin' dice with a dude from Houston

Well there ain't no jobs here workin' cattle

So I got on the part time haulin' gravel

With some outfit from Seattle out here building custom homes

With those north Texas blues

Thought I'd paid all my dues

Then those south Texas blues

Told me son you ain't through

Had the east Texas blues and the west Texas too

I've done all I know to do

Tryin to lose tryin to lose

These ol' Lone Star Blues

Well I gassed my truck and I packed my clothes

Turned in my key and I hit the road

I said cow town's where I'll go

You never know I might get lucky

Well I got a friend there turning knobs

At a place called Billy Bobs

Said thought he could get me a job there

Workin' as a bouncer

First night on the job was just insane

Some ol' boy got all deranged

Hit me in the head with a Harley chain

To this day my ears still ring

With those north Texas blues

Thought I'd paid all my dues

Then those south Texas blues

Told me son you ain't through

Had the east Texas blues and the west Texas too

I've done all I know to do

Tryin to lose tryin to lose

These ol' Lone Star Blues

I've done all I know to do

Tryin to lose tryin to lose

These ol' Lone Star Blues
