Texas Lullaby - The Doobie Brothers[00:00:00]
Sittin' by myself in the summertime[00:00:12]
When the heat is burnin' down[00:00:14]
Watchin' the golden crops in the field[00:00:17]
Just growin' without a sound[00:00:20]
I was a boy raised in the country[00:00:23]
And it's still a part of me[00:00:25]
And you see no matter[00:00:28]
Where I go it's a beautiful memory[00:00:29]
Rise with sun at the break of day[00:00:34]
Lookin' out my window[00:00:40]
It's the same as yesterday[00:00:42]
Sittin' under an old oak tree[00:00:45]
Pickin' my guitar in the shade[00:00:48]
That old tree spreadin' over my head[00:00:51]
Is the closest friend I made[00:00:53]
Just me and some lonely wooden music[00:00:56]
Floatin' through air[00:00:59]
The grass is rustlin' and the birds are singin'[00:01:02]
And my heart don't have a care[00:01:05]
Still another day finds me in the fields[00:01:08]
Sweat is soakin' up my ragged clothes[00:01:13]
But I'd rather work than steal[00:01:16]
Watchin' the sun settle down[00:01:19]
Over open Texas land[00:01:21]
Looking at the cattle[00:01:24]
And the horses runnin' wild as they can[00:01:26]
Life was different in the old days[00:01:30]
You just get a day's work done[00:01:32]
When you were finished workin' in the fields[00:01:35]
There was chores at home to be done[00:01:38]
There was works at home to be done[00:01:41]
There was chores at home to be done[00:01:44]
So I was always hearin' music[00:01:52]
Always wanna play me some[00:01:55]
As a full-time friend or the way to ease[00:01:57]
The end of a woman that swayed me some[00:02:00]
Hearin' those tunes always[00:02:03]
Had a way of soothin' out my soul[00:02:05]
When times got hard and work got slow[00:02:09]
It was music that kept me whole[00:02:12]
Sun beatin' down through the trees[00:02:15]
Gets so hot bring a workin' man to his knees[00:02:20]
Part of my heart part of my soul part of a melody[00:02:26]
Hands are clappin' and people[00:02:31]
Swayin' in simple harmony[00:02:33]
Life was different in the old days[00:02:37]
You just get a day's work done[00:02:39]
When you finished workin' in the fields[00:02:42]
There was chores at home to be done[00:02:45]
There was works at home to be done[00:02:47]
There was chores at home to be done[00:02:50]
Late in the evenin' on the front porch[00:03:20]
When the sun is settin' in the west[00:03:23]
Me and the boys pass around the bottle[00:03:26]
And sing what we like best[00:03:28]
Sing about our wives[00:03:31]
Sing about our children singin' out the Delta blues[00:03:33]
We're simple folks[00:03:37]
And we like it that way got nothin' left to lose[00:03:38]
No[00:03:42]
Watchin' the sun settle down[00:03:43]
Over open Texas land[00:03:45]
Looking at the cattle[00:03:48]
And the horses runnin' wild as they can[00:03:49]
Life was different in the old days[00:03:54]
You just get a day's work done[00:03:56]
When you were finished workin' in the fields[00:03:59]
There was chores at home to be done[00:04:01]
Part of my heart part of my soul part of a melody[00:04:04]
Hands are clappin' and people[00:04:10]
Swayin' sing in harmony[00:04:11]
Life was different in the old days[00:04:15]
You just get a day's work done[00:04:17]
When you finished workin' in the fields[00:04:20]
There was chores at home to be done[00:04:23]
There was works at home to be done[00:04:25]
Sing the Lullaby[00:04:28]
