In a little cabaret in a South Texas border town

Boy and his guitar and the people

Came from all around

And all the girls from there to Austin

Were slipping away from home and putting

Jewelery in hock

To take the trip to go and listen

To the little dark-haired boy who played the

Tennessee flat top box

And he would play

Well he couldn't ride or wrangle and he

Never cared to make a dime

But give him his guitar and he'd

Be happy all the time

And all the girls from nine to ninety

Were snapping fingers tapping toes and

Begging him Don't stop

And hypnotized and fascinated

By the little dark-haired boy who played the

Tennessee flat top box

And he would play

Then one day he was gone and no one

Ever saw him around

He'd vanished like the breeze and they forgot

Him in the little town

But all the girls still dreamed about him

And hung around the cabaret until

The doors were locked

And then one day on the Hit Parade

Was a little dark-haired boy who played the

Tennessee flat top box

And he would play
