Ry Cooder - The Girls From Texas слова песни


(James Lewis/Jimmy Holiday/Cliff Chambers)

Well, I met a girl from Texas `bout a year ago
Hadn`t known her for too long when I had to let her go
You see, she had a razor, was ten inches or so
And every night you`d hear her knocking at my door
She said, "Baby, I`ll give you the clothes on my back
You can have everything that I`ve got in my shack
But if you ever try to leave they`ll take your out in sack
`Cause me and my razor will see to that"

That`s the way the girls are from Texas
That`s the way the girls are from Texas
That`s the way the girls are from Texas

I thought about my situation, decided not to tarry
For my own self preservation I decided we should marry
When the preacher started reading `bout `till death do us part
I told him, "Skip it, we had that understanding right from the start"

That`s the way the girls are from Texas
That`s the way the girls are from Texas (Houston to San Antone)
That`s the way the girls are from Texas (Got to love `em right or leave `em
alone)

Well, we settled down, got me a little old job, `65 Fairlane Ford
Every Friday night I would stop in and cash my pay check down
at the grocery
store
They had a little girl worked in there, must have been about seventeen
She was the cutest thing I had ever seen
It`s the same old story and I`m afraid it wasn`t too very long
Before we had fallen deeply in love and I knew it was wrong
I said baby, we got to stop this thing right here
Or my woman is gonna cut my throat from ear to ear, that`s right
In tearful supplication, she looked up in my face
I could feel her heart was breaking as these sad words she did say
"You should have told me you was married, baby
She pulled out a forty-five and let me have it, right smack between
the eyes

That`s the way the girls are from Texas
That`s the way the girls are from Texas
That`s the way the girls are from Texas

She was guilty, I was dead
Now, what`d you think that the old judge said ?
"Ah, that`s just the way the girls are down here in Texas
Case dismissed!"

That`s the way the girls are from Texas
That`s the way the girls are from Texas (Houston to San Antone)
That`s the way the girls are from Texas (Got to love `em right or leave `em
alone, boy)
