Texas Lullaby - The Doobie Brothers[00:00:01]

Tom Johnston[00:00:13]

Sittin' by myself in the summertime when the heat is burnin' down[00:00:14]

Watchin' the golden crops in the field just growin' without a sound[00:00:17]

I was a boy raised in the country and it's still a part of me[00:00:23]

And you see no matter where I go it's a beautiful memory[00:00:28]

Rise with sun at the break of day lookin' out my window[00:00:34]

It's the same as yesterday[00:00:42]

Sittin' under an old oak tree pickin' my guitar in the shade[00:00:45]

That old tree spreadin' over my head is the closest friend I made[00:00:51]

Just me and some lonely wooden music floatin' through air[00:00:56]

The grass is rustlin' and the birds are singin' and my heart don't have a care[00:01:02]

Still another day finds me in the fields sweat is soakin' up my ragged clothes[00:01:08]

But I'd rather work than steal[00:01:14]

Watchin' the sun settle down over open Texas land looking at the cattle and the horses runnin' wild as they can[00:01:21]

Life was different in the old days you just get a day's work done[00:01:30]

When you were finished workin' in the fields there was chores at home to be done[00:01:36]

I was always hearin' music always wanna play me some[00:01:41]

As a fulltime friend or the way to ease the end of a woman that swayed me some[00:01:44]

Hearin' those tunes always had a way of soothin' out my soul[00:02:03]

When times got hard and work got slow it was music that kept me whole[00:02:07]

Sun beatin' down through the trees gets so hot bring a workin' man to his knees[00:02:14]

Part of my heart part of my soul part of a melody[00:02:26]

Hands are clappin' and people swayin' in simple harmony[00:02:31]

Life was different in the old days you just get a day's work done[00:02:37]

When you finished workin' in the fields there was chores at home to be done[00:02:42]

Late in the evenin' on the front porch when the sun is settin' in the west[00:02:48]

Me and the boys pass around the bottle and sing what we like best[00:03:21]

Sing about our wives sing about our children singin' out the Delta blues[00:03:26]

We're simple folks and we like it that way got nothin' left to lose[00:03:37]
