Texas Morning Lyrics

Right in the middle of a ten cent scenery
Shuffled and stacked on a post card rack
There's a cute little girl with a Shetland pony
She smiles at me but I can't smile back
Cactus Jack drinks coffee black
Tells me it's my lucky day
Five o'clock in the Texas Morning
And I've come a long, long way
Five o'clock in the Texas Morning
And I've come a long, long way

She left me cold on a Winter's morning
And cold it's been for a long, long time
She told me Texas was where she's goin'
And I've come looking but she's so hard to find
Cactus Jack drinks coffee black
Tells me it's my lucky day
Five o'clock in the Texas Morning
And I've come a long, long way
Five o'clock in the Texas Morning
And I've come a long, long way

Oh, I don't know just where I'll find her Maybe the soldier with the suitcase saw her
She just said she was goin' to Texas for a little while
So I'm lookin' for a girl with light brown hair
And hazel eyed, she's not too pretty, but a beautiful smile
She just said, "Well, I'm goin' to Texas for a little while"

Cook in the back he's gettin' curious
He asks the waitress where I'm from
She just says, "Well, I've never seen him
He's prob'ly just a California bum"
Cactus Jack he says, "That's right"
As I walk out into the night
Five o'clock in the Texas Morning
And I've got a long, long ride
Five o'clock in the Texas Morning
And I've got a long, long ride
Outside, the sun is up And the wind blows me
Like a Dixie cup Down the highway
