West Texas Waltz featuring Emmylou Harris (Album Version) - Flaco Jimenez[00:00:00]
Written by:Butch Hancock[00:00:00]
When you're ready for steady to go dancin' romancin'[00:00:00]
Grab your sweetheart and jump in your car[00:00:06]
Drive right on down to the bright side of town[00:00:11]
You'll be glad you don't have to drive far[00:00:14]
You'll be happy you don't have to go far[00:00:18]
Park your pickups and Cadilacs Fords and Renaults[00:00:22]
And dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:00:27]
Grandmammy grandpappy if you want to stay happy[00:00:35]
You better lace up your best dancing shoes[00:00:39]
Come see us don't write us you can stop your arthritis[00:00:43]
Just by dancin' away your blues[00:00:47]
Just by dancin' away your blues[00:00:51]
So bind up your bunions with band aids and gauze[00:00:55]
Come dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:00:59]
I met a fine banker and I'd sure like to thank him[00:01:26]
For the credit he gave me made me shout[00:01:30]
He changed my whole attitude and to show him ny gratitude[00:01:34]
I decided I'd just ask him out[00:01:38]
Yes I thought I just might ask her out[00:01:42]
I said close up your windows honey lock up your vaults[00:01:46]
And dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:01:51]
We spent the next to the last dollar in the old ice cream parlor[00:01:59]
On a milkshake and a malt and a pop[00:02:03]
Then we heard us some sounds there was a H***y tonk lounge[00:02:07]
Right next to the ice cream shop[00:02:11]
Next door to the ice cream shop[00:02:15]
Now only two things are better than milkshakes and malts[00:02:19]
And one is dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:02:23]
And the other is somethin' but really it's nothin'[00:02:32]
To speak of it's somethin' to do[00:02:36]
If you've done it before you'll be doin' it some more[00:02:40]
Just as soon as the dancin' is through[00:02:44]
Right after the dancin' is through[00:02:48]
And if anybody asks you why just tell it's because[00:02:52]
You been dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:02:56]
