This Old Porch (Live) - Robert Earl Keen/Lyle Lovett[00:00:00]

Written by：Lyle Pearce/Robert Earl[00:00:01]

This old porch is like a big old red and white hereford bull[00:01:11]

Standing under a mesquite tree[00:01:17]

Out in Texas[00:01:21]

And he just keeps on playing hide and seek[00:01:24]

With that hot August sun[00:01:27]

Sweatin' and pantin'[00:01:30]

His work is never done[00:01:33]

This old porch is like a steaming greasy plate of enchiladas[00:01:36]

With lots of cheese and onions[00:01:43]

And a guacamole salad[00:01:46]

And you can get 'em down at the lasalle hotel[00:01:49]

In old downtown[00:01:52]

With iced tea and a waitress[00:01:55]

She will smile every time[00:01:58]

This old porch is the palace walk in[00:02:01]

On the main street of Texas[00:02:05]

That's never seen the day[00:02:09]

Of g and r and xs[00:02:12]

With that 62 poster[00:02:14]

That's almost faded down[00:02:17]

And a screen without a picture[00:02:21]

Since giant came to town[00:02:24]

This old porch is like a weathered gray haired[00:02:52]

Seventy years of Texas[00:02:56]

Who's doing all he can[00:02:59]

Not to give in to the city[00:03:02]

And he always takes the rent late[00:03:05]

So long as I run his cattle[00:03:08]

And he picks me up at dinnertime[00:03:11]

And I listen to him rattle[00:03:14]

He says the brazos still runs muddy[00:03:17]

Just like she's run all along[00:03:20]

There ain't never been no cane to grind[00:03:24]

The cotton's all but gone[00:03:28]

And you know this brand new chevrolet[00:03:29]

Hell it was something back in 60[00:03:33]

But now there won't nobody listen to him[00:03:37]

'Cause they all think he's crazy[00:03:40]

This old porch is just a long time[00:03:43]

Of waiting and forgetting[00:03:47]

And remembering the coming back[00:03:49]

And not crying about the leaving[00:03:53]

And remembering the falling down[00:03:56]

And the laughter of the curse of luck[00:03:59]

From all of those passerby[00:04:02]

Who said we'd never get back up[00:04:05]

This old porch is just a long time[00:04:20]

Of waiting and forgetting[00:04:24]

And remembering the coming back[00:04:27]

And not crying about the leaving[00:04:30]

And remembering the falling down[00:04:33]

And the laughter of the curse of luck[00:04:36]

From all of those sons of bitches[00:04:40]

Who said we'd never get back up[00:04:43]
