The only two things in life
that make it worth livin'
Is guitars that tune
good and firm feelin' women
I don't need my name
in the marquee lights
I got my song and I got
you with me tonight
Maybe it's time we got back
to the basics of love
(chorus)
Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas
with Waylon and Willie and the boys
This successful life we're livin'
got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys
Between Hank Williams pain songs
and Newberry's train songs
and Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain
Out in Luckenbach, Texas
ain't nobody feelin' no pain
So baby let's sell your diamond ring
buy some boots and faded jeans and go away
This coat and tie is choking me
in your high society you cry all day
We've been so busy keepin' up with the Jones
four car garage and we're still building on
Maybe it's time we got back
to the basics of love
(chorus)
Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas
with Willie and Waylon and the boys
This successful life we're livin's
got us feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys
Between Hank Williams' pain songs
and Jerry Jeff's train songs
and Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain
Out in Luckenbach, Texas
there ain't nobody feelin' no pain
