(Bobby Gene Emmons, Chips Moman)

|
The only two things in life that make it worth living
|
Is guitars tuned good and firm-feeling women.
|
Well, I don’t need my name in the marquee lights,
|
I got my song and I got you with me tonight.
|
Let’s go to Luckenbach, Texas
|
With Waylon and Willie and the boys
|
This successful life we’re living’s
|
Got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys.
|
Between Hank Williams pain songs,
|
Steve Goodman train songs,
|
Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain,
|
Out in Luckenbach, Texas,
|
Ain’t nobody feeling no pain.
|
|
So baby let’s sell your diamond ring
|
To 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 keeping up with the Jones
|
Four-car garage and we’re still building on.
|
|
Let’s go to Luckenbach, Texas,
|
Waylon and Willie and the boys.
|
This successful life we’re living’s
|
Got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys.
|
Between Hank Williams pain songs,
|
Steve Goodman train songs,
|
Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain,
|
Luckenbach, Texas,
|
Ain’t nobody feeling no pain.
