lyrics

TEXAS GOLD
(Valentine/Davalos)

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BIGGEST
CONTINENTAL USA
FROM THE COLORADO RIVER
TO THE RIO GRANDE HEY
LIVING IN THE DIRT AND HILLS
OR WHERE THE SEA DRIFT DOWN
THEY SAY THE SKY IS BETTER
UNDERNEATH THE VIOLET CROWN

IT DON’T TAKE MUCH TALKIN’
TO GET YOUR GIRLFRIEND ROCKING
IT DON’T TAKE MUCH TALKIN’
TO GET YOUR GIRLFRIEND ROCKIN

WE GOT THE MOJO MAJIK
MAKE A RATTLE AND BUZZ
YEAH THE CRITTERS CRAWLING
WHERE YOU WANNA PUT YOUR TOES
NO ONE’S OFF IN A HURRY
TO THE HONEYMOON HOTEL
PUT NICKELS ON HIS EYES
AND THE BLUES IN HIS HEAD

IT DON’T TAKE MUCH TALKIN’
TO GET YOUR GIRLFRIEND ROCKING
IT DON’T TAKE MUCH TALKIN’
TO GET YOUR GIRLFRIEND ROCKIN
AND ROLLING ALL OVER AND ROLLIN’

CROSS THE STATE LINE TO FIND SOME
DON’T MATTER WHERE THEY’RE FROM
EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD THEY COME
SOLO OVER: G G A A BB end on GG

TAKE A RIDE IN STILETTO
MOTOR CROSS THE SOUTHWEST
THE TIMES A HEART GOT BROKEN
COULD FILL AN EL CAMINO BED
