Long Road to Houston - Flatt & Scruggs[00:00:00]
Written by:Norman Stephens[00:00:01]
Well it's a long long way from here to Houston[00:00:18]
It's a long long road from here to home[00:00:23]
This cold black night is far from friendly[00:00:28]
But I know that I have got to travel on[00:00:32]
I know the things are mighty fat in Houston[00:00:37]
And they pick me up as soon as I hit town[00:00:42]
But I'm lonesome for the things that I am used to[00:00:47]
Even though before I left she put me down[00:00:51]
I'll just have to take my chances when I get there[00:00:56]
Cause I know the law is surely after me[00:01:01]
But I think I'd rather be in jail in Houston[00:01:06]
Than walkin' down this road in Tennessee[00:01:10]
I was doin' fine and that's for certain[00:01:20]
But her greedy ways were found to do me in[00:01:25]
Her taste for pretty things soon had me hurtin'[00:01:30]
And I found myself a headin' for the bend[00:01:34]
I'll be there when the sun comes up tomorrow[00:01:39]
Now I have to pay for things that I have done[00:01:44]
Just being there would take away my sorrow[00:01:48]
But it's worthy just to see that Houston sun[00:01:53]
I'll just have to take my chances when I get there[00:01:58]
Cause I know the law is surely after me[00:02:03]
But I think I'd rather be in jail in Houston[00:02:08]
Than walkin' down this road in Tennessee[00:02:12]
Than walkin' down this road in Tennessee[00:02:17]
Lord I'm walkin' down this road in Tennessee[00:02:22]
