West Texas Waltz (Album Version) - Joe Ely[00:00:00]

When you're ready for steady to go dancin' romancin'[00:00:01]

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[00:00:15]

You'll be happy you don't have to go far[00:00:19]

Park your pick-ups and Cadillacs and fords and Renaults[00:00:23]

Get out and dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:00:27]

My pickup needs a tune-up I better get up and make up[00:00:34]

My mind to get on it today[00:00:38]

The tractor's been actin' up and the sewer lines are backin' up[00:00:42]

But I'll be dancin' tonight anyway[00:00:47]

I'll be dancin' tonight anyway[00:00:51]

'Cause I count my blessings I don't count my faults[00:00:55]

I like to dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:00:59]

Well I found a young cow-dog an' I told him "Now now dog[00:01:06]

You're a borderline collie I'm a borderline fool[00:01:10]

But he had some bad habits he was scared of jack rabbits[00:01:14]

I sent him off to canine school[00:01:19]

I think they call it obedience school[00:01:22]

But when he came back he couldn't tell a cow from a horse[00:01:27]

But he could dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:01:31]

Grand mammy grand pappy if you wanna stay happy[00:01:38]

Better lace up your best dancin' shoes[00:01:42]

Come see us don't write us you can stop your arthritis[00:01:46]

Just by dancin' away your blues[00:01:50]

Now just by dancin' away your blues[00:01:54]

So bind up your bunions with band-aids and gauze[00:01:58]

And come on dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:02:02]

Oh yeah hey Mama[00:02:08]

I met a fine lady banker and I'd sure like to thank her[00:02:30]

For the credit she gave me made me shout[00:02:34]

She changed my whole attitude and to show her my little gratitude[00:02:38]

I decided I'd just ask her out[00:02:42]

Yeah I thought I just might ask her out[00:02:46]

I said Close up your windows and lock up your vaults[00:02:50]

And lets go dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:02:54]

We spent the next to last dollar in the old ice cream parlor[00:03:01]

On a milkshake and a malt and a pop[00:03:06]

And then we heard us some sounds was a honky tonk lounge[00:03:10]

Driving next to the ice cream shop[00:03:14]

Next door to the ice cream shop[00:03:18]

Now only two things are better than milkshakes and malts[00:03:22]

And one is dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:03:26]

And the other is somethin' but really it's nothin'[00:03:33]

To speak of it's somethin' to do[00:03:37]

And if you've done it before you'll be doin' it some more[00:03:41]

Just as soon as the dancin' is through[00:03:45]

Right after the dancin' is through[00:03:49]

And if anybody asks you why just tell 'em because[00:03:53]

You been dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz[00:03:57]
