David Allan Coe - Houston, Dallas, San Antone Lyrics

I got drunk in Austin Texas
I missed my plane in North Carolina
Spent all of my money on a long distance call
Huntsville Prison walls so high
I'm so lonesome I could die
You could make a grown man cry if you wanted to
Say goodbye to Houston for me
Give my best to San Antone
Tell Dallas there's a change in plans
I won't be comin' home

Dallas lives in Winston Salem
We got married in West Virginia
Then we moved to Texas on a fifty acre farm
I robbed a bank and shot a man
Ended up in Birmingham
But I guess I tipped my hand
And wound up in the pen
Say goodbye to Houston for me

Houston is my oldest daughter
Says she's leaving for New York City
She's gonna make her living reaching for a star
San Antone's my only son
Please don't tell him what I've done
Or that I had to use my gun
For that I killed a man
Say goodbye to Houston for me [Repeat: x2]
