Rollin' West (Larry W. Jones 06/19/2008) (song#5489)
Well, I was too young to know, there ain't many happy roads
I headed east and felt released with all my dreams in tow
For a little while I whittled the miles, but soon turned blue
So I asked the city folks what a cowpoke ought to do
Start rollin' west
Where the weather is blessed
Start rollin' west
This city life is stressed
This old asphalt ain't worth its salt, you'll only get depressed
Cowboy, before you die, just say goodbye and find your quest
Start rollin' west
- instrumental -
I quit my job, said bye to the mob, donned my cowboy hat
Spent some bucks for a pickup truck, left like a scalded cat
The highway called and out west I hauled to some places new
Texas dreamin' was my schemin' as toward the west I flew
I'm rollin' west
I've been gone for awhile
I'm rollin' west
Where songs are Texas style
I pity the folks in New York City and all the rest
I'm goin' where nothin's little bitty, it's just the best
I'm rollin' west
I'm rollin' west
Truckin' to Abilene
I'm rollin' west
Where air is fresh and clean
Now, when I get home where I belong, I won't be depressed
It won't be long and it sure ain't wrong to be Texas blessed
I'm rollin' west

Here is to you as good as you are
And here is to me as bad as I am
As good as you are and as bad as I am
I'm as good as you are as bad as I am

Any way you play that geetar is better than I could do it,
so don't be shy, just make them strings fly. If you wait
for some new dawn, we'll both be gone.

Thanks for the vote of support mate , can I say your little quote at the end , " If you wait or some new dawn, we'll both be gone " , is a great line ....
Thats the sort of things songs are written on ...
